Livestock gains boost from Virginia pastures study
Research by R. B. Hunt and C. M. Kincaid of Virginia Tech shows pasture fertility and management greatly affect beef cattle and sheep gains. Complete fertilizers raised weight gains in tests, while nitrogen alone often failed to pay. Winter feeding and pasture maintenance impact yearly gains and costs per pound, with pasture-fed animals matching or surpassing grain-finished cattle in overall profit.
