Feeding Steers on Surplus Corn and Roughage Profitable
United States Department of Agriculture tests show southern farmers can profit by feeding native steers surplus corn silage, oats straw, and cottonseed meal. Three lots averaging 825 pounds began after five months and reached about 1,006 to 1,059 pounds with daily gains of 1.56 to 1.70 pounds. Pork credit from meat raised profits per steer, while shrinkage in transit remained low with proper silage feeding.
