[QUOTE="R.N.Reed, post: 486904, member: 7458"] I do not argue the point that lbs per day are the major component to profitability in a feedlot animal.However quality is a consideration on every pen that enters the feedlot.If the cattle are a bunch of mixed up poor quality cattle they will be fed to whatever and sold on a live weight basis because grade and yield will kill the operator.If they are quality cattle they will probably be ultrasounded and fed to an optimum and sold on the grid.I would guess on the avg the feeder would pay less for the first pen as well.The real profit comes when you have efficient adg.and quality!
