Are the farm practices for these cows the same as at CATHIS Farm?

The difference is that these cows receive a haylage/grain mix during finishing. They are Angus/Simmental mix cattle raised on pasture and finished on pasture with a haylage/grain mix. CATHIS Farm’s Dexter cattle are 100% grass-fed, meaning they are grass-fed and grass-finished. Both are raised on pasture for their entire lives.
