Cactus Feeders is doing it in one feedlot in KS with 8500 cows. They made it a complete stand-alone operation so they could accurately assess costs. They say they averaged about $1.50/cow/day in feed costs, with a total enterprise cost of about $2/head/day in early 2015. It may be less now with cheaper feed and more experience.
