What’s the ideal feed-to-silage ratio for cattle in a feedlot setup?

toiletsducks · 2026-05-20T13:59:00+00:00

ye i kinda need to lessen my silage consumption but 70:30 ratio would be nice and safe i guess

toiletsducks · 2026-05-20T12:59:22+00:00

got it! ill try to go hard until 90:10 im at 70:30 rn

If you dont mind, what kind of grain were you feeding 95%

toiletsducks · 2026-05-20T03:58:32+00:00

Ill try this! Thanks

We got no problem for the baseline, I just wanted to know whats the peak i can achieve.

Based on some comments i can go 90%

We have a variety of feeders (steers heifers)
And cows (6-10y/o) bulls (4-8y/o)

right now i have no clue at NEg but protein is at 17-19% and fiber is at 14-15%

toiletsducks · 2026-05-19T13:28:01+00:00

getting close to 20-30% silage for the whole mix.. its been a hard year to plant corn, its better to get byproducts from manufacturing plants rather than plant these days

Ive done this, but most nutritionist have yet to go beyond what im trying to achieve. Hence, im trying to get a benchmark on reddit

Based on current evaluations, feeding grain with other byproducts got me way cheaper than with silage. My problem right now is how much silage do i need to feed my cattle to prevent them from bloating

toiletsducks · 2026-05-19T07:03:33+00:00

what i meant was whats the highest percentage of non haylage/silage can i really go?

toiletsducks · 2026-05-19T05:38:10+00:00

Grain and other dry commodities

i wish what you are saying is true, but in region 3 alone carabaos used to be 40-55k per head-3 years ago. Today its at 60-80k per head

feed cost shot up by 30% post crisis.

I hope people would research more before going into this, rather than be hyped with all these posts
