Beef Cattle Forage
The process of transforming grass into beef is nothing short of miraculous; that’s why a high quality pasture seed mix for beef cattle is important. Here at Nature’s Seed, we understand meat quality depends largely on the quality of forage consumed. Beef cattle require plenty of tender, nutrient-rich grasses and legumes that remain palatable throughout the year. Beef cattle also tend to be selective grazers, meaning they’ll eat the tastiest plants first. This can lead to uneven, spotty grazing patterns which lowers the productivity of a pasture. Our blends utilized only the most palatable grass and legume species, ensuring your beef cattle spend more time eating and less time roaming.
Our team of rangeland experts has designed a beef cattle pasture seed mix for every region of the United States. The following considerations were made during the design process for each regional blend:
- Environmental elements such as soil conditions, sun/shade preferences and heat tolerances
- Genetic attributes such as nutrient content, grazing tolerance and disease resistance
- Water requirements
Our beef cattle pasture blends also contain a proper percentage of legumes. Legume content plays a major role in pasture productivity and animal performance. Not only do legumes provide a natural source of fertilizer, they also allow cattle to consume more forage and grow more rapidly.
Whether you’re grazing 100% grass-fed beef or looking to produce high quality grass hay, our blends will help you achieve the best return on your investment.
