Hard times have hit our farm and I need to reduce the amount of corn I am feeding to our beef steers. Currently I am feeding full corn rations, protein supplement, and hay. I need to reduce cost of course. I have a very good supply of large round and sm. square bales of good quality hay and corn stalk bales. I would like to know how I can go about switching them from full corn to basically a hay diet with maybe just a growers ration of corn. And what I should use for a protein supplement? Distillers grain is not an option for us because of handling. Gluten pellets were mentioned to us. Have never used them and dont know much about them. Any advice is welcomed. I know I have not given enough information so I also welcome your questions.
