[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 280513, member: 1715"] I supplementing this year with $1.50 bu corn bought last November. With this corn price and a value of gain in the $0.80 to $1.02 range I could easily justify supplementing grass cattle with energy. Corn in my area is currently $2.00 bu and moving up, and feeder prices are dropping. My guess is that supplementing next year will be break even or provide a modest profit. I have been measuring a supplementation feed conversion range of 8 to 11 pounds of feed per pound of gain. Any suggestions for improving feed conversion and/or improving profits with a grass/corn grain ration??? [/QUOTE]
