How much corn does it take for a steer to gain 1 pound?
For such a general question, it requires a general answer: It depends on the steer and the type of feed corn being used to feed that steer. There is some sort of general "rule of thumb" out there that it takes around 9 lbs of grain to get one pound of beef, but that is pretty ambiguous. It takes more pounds of corn to get a pound of gain on a Holstein steer than it would on an Angus steer, for instance. Also, cracked corn will get a steer to gain more weight than whole corn will.
How many acres of grain are needed to raise a steer compared to the acres of grass it takes to raise a steer?
This all depends on the kind of grain you are feeding that steer, since there are different levels of crude proteins, TDNs, ADF's, etc., that comes with different grains. And the acres of grass depends on where you live and how much forage biomass grows in that particular area. So all those factors that are missing in this question make it impossible to answer. Typically, though, it takes more pasture to raise one steer than it does to raise a steer on grain. But how much is unknown at this point.
