Cattle fed in bedded confinements had better feed conversions and heavier finish weights then cattle fed in open lots. Cattle fed in bedded confinements also tended to have better daily gains then cattle fed in open lots.</p>}, month = {1}, keywords = {ASL R2581}, issn = {2693-0293}, publisher={Iowa State University Digital Press}, journal = {Iowa State University Animal Industry Report} }
