[QUOTE="Rmc, post: 1723779, member: 39072"] the above article states that that a Kansas state study showed that cows feed alfalfa breed back quicker. And calves weaning weight was highest if their dam received the higher percentage of alfalfa to dams weight. Nope not cost effective, or necessary to feed beef cows alfalfa. Why would anyone want to wean larger calves and have cows breed back quicker? Everyone knows you can starve profit into a cow. Why supplement a pregnant cow with alfalfa and have her breed back quicker and risk her weaning a larger calf? [/QUOTE]
