For Brahman or Santa Gertrudis crosses (tropical breeds), a medium to high roughage diet may be adequate. For animals raised on the range from weaning to 18 months, a daily live weight gain of 0.3 kg has been reported (Animal production and range research unit 1988) and this will probably decline as the animals mature.
Average daily gain is simply the rate of weight gain per day over a specified period of time. For example, if a calf weighs 600 pounds on June 1 and later weighs 750 pounds on July 31 of that same year, then it gained 150 pounds in 60 days.Divide 150 pounds by 60 days, and the ADG comes out to be 2.5 pounds per day.o achieve a 25% improvement in gain per acre for 80 calves stocked on 40 acres with an ADG of 2 pounds per day for 100 days (i.e., going from 400 pounds per acre to 500 pounds per acre), which one of the following scenarios would be more practical and economically efficient?
