COW/CALF RANCH
Cows are bred and calves are born and raised every year on cow-calf farms and ranches, spending time grazing on grass pastures within sight of their mothers.
FEEDYARD
Cattle spend their final 4-6 months at a feedyard being fed a scientifically-balanced diet and receiving daily care.
BACKGROUNDING
Between 6-12 months of age, cattle spend time at stocker and backgrounder farms and ranches where they graze on a variety of pastures. Here they gain weight and convert forage and grass into lean protein.
