Abstract

Dairy farmers are realizing they can generate profit from more than just milk. One of the most underdeveloped potential profit centers is the production of specialized dairy-crossed steer calves and excess heifers that can be profitably fed and marketed. These proceedings will discuss the opportunity and the feed and management approach to help producers understand and raise profitable dairy-beef cattle.
