Beef cattle normally need just roughage to subsist. Beef cows do considerably well on just grass and hay, though some producers like to give them a taste of grain or silage or alfalfa cubes if the hay quality is poorer than necessary. Finishing beefers are typically fed a grain-based diet, though the natural-way of finishing beefers involve mostly grass and legumes. Grass-finishing is a niche market comparted to grain-finishing. Beef cattle have less nutritive requirements than dairy cows.
Dairy cattle need a feed that is high in energy, protein and calcium to be able to produce good milk. Since dairy cows are quite thin, they need this feed for both bodily maintenance and lactation, as thin cows need a higher quality feed to meet maintenance needs. Grain and silage (grass, cereal grain and/or alfalfa) is the primary diet that dairy cows are fed.

Dairy cattle
Because of the close confignment of dairy cows. Beef cattle are not in close confignment.
So with 80 head of cattle, we have a 1:3 ratio of dairy to beef, respectively. That translates to: for every head of dairy cattle there are three beef cattle. Since, mathematically, 80 total head of cattle with a 1:3 ratio don't really work out to nice, round numbers, we will have to work with fractions and such. 1:3 ratio can be converted to a fraction: 1/3. 1/3=0.3333333... So, with 80 head of cattle, we find the number of dairy cattle: 80 x (1/3) = 26.66666666.... Which we could round off to 26 dairy cattle. Since we have 80 total head, we subtract to find how many beef cattle are in the herd: 80 - 26 = 54. So the answer is thus: If there are 80 head of cattle, and the ratio of dairy to beef cattle is 1:3, then there are 26 dairy cattle and 54 beef cattle.
There are dairy and beef cattle, mainly.
Cattle are reared for milk and meat production.
Yes, they have a high quality meat.
