What percentage of corn do you use with oats to feed beef cattle?
Ltde
None. If you get enough energy content with feeding oats (especially processed oats), corn is not necessary. However, it depends on the class and breed of beef cattle you are referring to, as well as environmental factors, additional feedstuffs given and accessibility. As such, a person could include anywhere from one percent to as much as 80 percent corn used with oats to feed beef cattle.

What is the best to feed beef cattle shell corn or corn gulten?
That all depends on the cost of each and what type of beef cattle you are feeding: dry bred cows, finishers, growers, lactating cows, or bulls. Shell corn would have a lower energy and protein content than corn gluten, so the shell corn may be best to feed to replacement heifers and growers, and probably even bulls if they don't have much weight to gain, and the corn gluten could be fed to lactating cows or finishers. Dry-bred cows don't need to be grained unless they're too thin and need to have their weight increased prior to calving.
