Oh, and what about your location? The different feeds that are available for one location is different for another. You can feed your cattle a variety of feeds from range cubes/pellets to rolled oats, cracked corn, wheat, barley, triticale, etc., or even grass, hay and/or silage (barley, oats, grass-mix, corn). There is NO best feed to feed beef cattle, especially when you haven't defined WHAT TYPE of beef cattle you are referring to! Some operations may prefer to have their animals on grass only, with a little treat of alfalfa or range cubes to keep them friendly and to get them to move from one pasture another. Other operations are in a winter where they need to feed hay (grass only, grass-legume mix or pure legume) and/or silage, and choose to or not to feed a little grain once a day or every second day. Other operations require their cattle (NO MATTER what type) in a drylot for 24/7/365 and need to feed them a whole mix of feeds, from a grain mixture to hay and silage. Please talk with local farmers and ranchers and visit your local county extension agent to see what your options are for the "best feeds" to feed your beef cattle.
