RCORDS ON 80,000 CATTLE
PROVIDE VALUABLE FACTS
In order to compile dependable data on
problems of beef production, the United
States Department of Agriculture in the
past four years has taken records on about
80,000 steers in various States of the Corn |
Belt. When the work is finished at the
end of another yeai there will be records
on approximately 100,000 steers fed for I
the market.
In the territory covered—Illinois, Indi-
ana, Iowa, Missouri And Nebraska-most
of the feeders are finished on corn and
legume hay. or on corn and silage supple-
mented with a protien ineal. The kind
of hay grown in a particular locality usu-
ally determines - the ration used, and a
survey shows that about equal numbers
of steers 'are fed each year by these two
methods.’ Where clover or alfalfa is grown
abundantly the standard ration is corn and
one of these hays. In other places, where
most of the hay is mixed, silage is in-
cluded in the ration, and cottonseed or
linseed meal is fed as a supplement to
supply protein. •** t L
The information collected during the
four years shows some interesting com
pariseps of the two methods of making
beef. To make the same amount of total
gain required less time where corn ami
alfalfa hat was used, but required more
grain than was needed in the com-silage-
cottonseed-meal ration. With the first
ration the steers put on |an average of
2.07 pounds of gain a day, while those
getting silagO and meal in addition to
corn put on an average of 1,63. In the
firsts case it required 146 days to put on
the 302 pounds and in the other 185 days
lt; should be remembered that these fig-
ures are based on the records taken on
approximately 20,000 steers a year for
four years.
The feed consumed by the average steer
in these two groups is given below:
