A beef steer typically eats about 17 pounds per day of dry matter grain, and gains 3 pounds per day in weight. That's a ratio of 5.7:1. Since we know the animal gains 400 pounds, we can calculate the total weight of dry matter eaten as 400 * 5.7 = 2280 pounds.
Let's assume hypothetically, first, that half of the
800 pounds the steer weighs at entry is waste, leaving
400 pounds of edible bee
