Several precautions for beef cattle farming

1. Housed beef cattle are generally fed twice a day, which makes arrangement and management easier, but studies show that increasing the number of feedings and extending feeding time can increase the fat thickness of beef cattle carcasses and the overall body weight, and reduce the lean meat content of the carcass.

2. Wheat and corn are the two main feeds for beef cattle. Under otherwise identical feed conditions, beef cattle fed wheat have a slightly better flavor than those fed corn. However, this difference is very small and has no obvious effect on consumer choice, so corn is still the main choice of feed.

3. Add a certain amount of enzymes to the beef cattle diet. For example, ligninase or cellulase, regardless of what kind of concentrate is fed to beef cattle, the flavor of the beef cattle is slightly improved.

4. Poultry manure has a relatively high protein content and, after drying and disinfection, can be used as feed for beef cattle.
