Whether putting food in the refrigerator, the freezer, or the cupboard, you have plenty of opportunities to prevent foodborne illnesses. One of the basics of food safety is cooking food to its proper temperature.
Re: Average hay consumption. A cow needs about 3 per cert of its body weight in roughage a day, a 1000 lb cow needs 30 lbs of hay if it has no other source of roughage.
All cattle will eat primarily between 1.6% to 3.0% of their body weight per day (on a Dry-Matter [DM] basis), depending on the quality of the forage they are consuming.Dry cows, heifers, steers and bulls tend to eat around 2.0% of their body weight per day, on average.ig cows eat more than small cows, and thin cows will eat more than fat cows. Also, as you will notice in the related question posted below, moisture content in the feed and the quality of the feed will affect how much an animal will eat per day. Usually, the higher the moisture content, the more a bovine will eat.
