Grass-fed cows are slow to bulk up. That's why they are fed with much more calorie-rich food like grain.
- i_am_proteus 5y agoI wonder if we have the milling capacity on hand to convert feed maize to corn meal for a one- or two-year crop shortage. It needs to be milled and nixtamalized before it's fit for human consumption. It might be more efficient to distribute it as feed and just raise a bunch more egg layers in suburban lots. Probably faster than trying to stand up a bunch of mills right quick, too.
