Zero to ten pounds of grain per pound of beef. Cattle raised on forage alone (grass and hay, zero grains) produce a very lean, usualy tough, and somewhat 'grassy' tasting beef. Animals raised on forage for the first 12-18 months, and fed adequate grain and forage for 8- 12 weeks within a limited area will produce a better quality of meat, usually select or choice. Prime beef is fed unlimited grain along with dried forage, kept as stress free and quiet as possible, and slaughtered at the optimum time resulting in tender, well-marbled, rich beef.

How much corn does it take for a steer to gain 1 pound?

For such a general question, it requires a general answer: It depends on the steer and the type of feed corn being used to feed that steer. There is some sort of general "rule of thumb" out there that it takes around 9 lbs of grain to get one pound of beef, but that is pretty ambiguous. It takes more pounds of corn to get a pound of gain on a Holstein steer than it would on an Angus steer, for instance. Also, cracked corn will get a steer to gain more weight than whole corn will.
