What exactly do our cattle eat?

They are 99.9% grass-fed and finished!

Our cattle graze exclusively on our biodiverse Louisiana pastures.

The cattle forage on our diverse pastures for plants such as sorghum multiple types of clovers, plantain, chicory, small grains, brassicas, radishes, turnips, collards, buckwheat, cow peas, sunn hemp, sunflower, okra. There is the smorgasbord of native browse and grass species endemic to our area! 

We also use soybean meal as a protein supplement in the winter, only if we have to. Doing so allows the cattle to better utilize the dormant (low protein low nutrient) forage during the winter months that otherwise would be indigestible for them. The microbes in their rumens need a minimum amount of protein in order to effectively digest the forages they consume. We use small amounts of soybean meal because it is very high in protein and allows them to utilize the low protein forages we have on the farm during the winter.

• Look for discoloration or mold. Good ground beef should be bright red and not brown. Obviously, if it has mold, it should go directly into the trash. 
• Smell your ground beef. If it has a rancid, tangy scent, that’s a sign it’s past its expiration date.
