Marketing corn through cattle

Iowa farmers have been marketing corn through cattle for more than 100 years. The practice, which peaked in the early 1970s, can add several cents to each bushel of corn. The Iowa Beef Center conducted research in 1998 about the return to marketing corn through cattle. In 2004, we conducted a follow-up to that initial report.
