That all depends on the individual cow and what that cow is fed. Feed efficiency is measured by dividing the amount of gain an animal experiences by the amount of feed it is fed. Feed efficiency can be influenced by the amount of grain put in a diet, the hormonal implants an animal recieves, the ionophores included in a feed, and the animal's genetics and breeding. Thus, feed efficiency itself is highly variable and tends to be inconsistent with each individual animal. This is because there are feed efficiency calculations which deem an animal suitable to be finished on a grain-based diet, and feed efficiency calculations that deem an animal suitable to be finished on grass.
There is much discussion on feed efficiency of beef cattle, so much that it would be worthwhile to visit some or all of the related links posted below.
