On average, it takes about 2.5 to 3.5 pounds of feed for a hog to gain 1 pound of body weight, depending on factors like the pig's age, breed, and overall health, as well as the quality of the feed. This feed conversion ratio can vary, with younger pigs generally requiring more feed relative to their weight gain compared to older pigs. Efficient feeding practices and optimal nutrition can help improve this ratio.

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.
