The Last Trimester
Lessons Learned on the Farm
A big lesson we have learned on the farm is how important a calf’s growth and development is during its last 3 months in its mother’s womb.
During these last 3 months, a calf is having somewhat of a growth spurt. Nutrition, and especially protein, is very important for the mother. This period is important because it can affect the natural health of that calf for its entire life.
It’s almost crazy, but this period in a calf’s life can have an effect on the quality of its meat two years down the road – when you’re sitting down at the dinner table for a nice, juicy steak! Yes, the taste and tenderness of that steak partly depends on what its mother ate during that last trimester.
When the beef industry tends to place its emphasis on the last 3 months a calf spends in the feedlot, we at BF Farms realize these last 3 months in its mother’s womb is when it begins!
