[QUOTE="Dan Powell, post: 3344598, member: 1370"] I agree with the sentiment, and have gone down that route but the hard facts are that maize puts finish on beef cattle faster and cattle get a shine about them which doesn't seem to happen off rye grass / clover. Plus the bedding stays drier and less straw required. My customer demands starch finished beef and maize seems to be the best option. Plus it's a C4 plant and adds diversity... grows well here.
