The average cow will eat approximately 25 lbs. per day…..that averages out to $2 per cow per day for a 150 day feeding season. Based on what you are telling us the estimated cost per cow would be $3.12.5 per day instead of $2 as posted. That would be at the quoted price of $160 per ton. That would raise the cost per cow to $468.75 each on a 150 day feeding period vs. $300 per cow as posted. Also, that price is without freight charges.
