Use this calculator to predict a steer's final weight for your Junior Livestock Show.
How it works
The number of days until the fair are multiplied by the average daily weight gain and then added to the animal's current weight.
Example
(Average daily gain(ADG) [0.6 lbs/day] / Pounds Purchased [2.2 lbs]) = Feed Efficiency [0.27 lbs]
Feed Efficiency Cost per Pound
Use this calculator to estimate a steer's daily gain.
