In Reply to: alfalfa for beef cows?? posted by Dave from MN on December 15, 2010 at 15:57:56:
In my opinion, the only thing feeding them pure alfalfa will hurt is your profit margins :) If you have any hay sales nearby, you could take loads of pure alfalfa and take home loads of lesser quality hay for the beefers and pocket the difference. The big advantage to feeding alfalfa is you don't have to worry about supplementing protein for pregnant cows like you do with grass hay. If you feed pure grass hay you almost need to give them some type of bean meal, brewers grain, cottonseed, or protein lick tubs (made out of beans usually) to lower the risk of calving problems in the spring. If you give them enough alfalfa hay, you don't need to worry about that. That's my experience anyway.
