What do beef cattle do all year round?
In the United States, market steers and heifers spend their time eating and growing until they are taken to market. Breeding cows are typically left on pasture all summer with their calves and bred via a bull in the herd in the early summer months. The calves are weaned and sent to a grower lot in the fall and the cows are turned back out on winter pasture. They calve in the spring, and the cycle starts over until they are removed from the breeding herd.
