Winter Beef Cows Cont'd From Page One
South Iowa studies show farmers feed beef cows at higher levels and cost than needed. Records indicate winter feed costs rise when cows are kept on high value feeds, offering no calf crop or return advantage. It takes about 1300 to 1500 pounds of total digestible seeds to winter dry cows enough to gain the weight of new calves in five months.
