[QUOTE="Lazy M, post: 1395746, member: 19946"] Visited a grass fed beef operation a few years ago. Around 40 hd of feeders that they would buy at 3-400# and finish on grass. I believe that the farm was 150a. Their pastures looked like carpet and their cattle looked very hungry. They purchased high quality alfalfa mixed hay and supplemented with hay year round. They said that it took them around a 12-15 mos to finish them after purchase. Claimed that they had a waiting list for their beef. Not sure if they are still in business, but at the time they indicated that they were pleased with their bottom line. [/QUOTE]
