Precision-Fed: Innovating on Grain Finishing

At North 36 Farms, we believe the difference is in the details. From the moment our cattle arrive to their final days on the farm, every step is guided by care, intention, and innovation — especially when it comes to nutrition.

Grain finishing is often seen as the final chapter in raising beef. For us, it’s a craft. We’ve refined the process with precision feeding technology that ensures each animal receives exactly what it needs — no more, no less.

Tailored Nutrition, Elevated Results

Not all cattle are the same — and neither are their dietary needs. Our approach to grain supplementing is anything but generic. We use a smart, stage-based feeding system that adjusts blends of grain based on the animal’s age, weight, and development stage.

Heifers, for example, metabolize differently than young steers. So they’re fed a specific mix designed to support their unique growth patterns and muscle composition. Younger animals are given nutrient-dense blends to support early development, while finishing cattle receive grains that enhance marbling and texture.

Every ration is calculated. Every blend has a purpose.

The result is beef with exquisite texture, balanced flavor, and consistent quality — every time.

Technology Meets Tradition

While we rely on cutting-edge technology to fine-tune our feeding process, the principles behind it are rooted in something timeless: respect for the animal and the land.

Our system monitors each herd’s intake, growth, and behavior in real time. This allows us to respond quickly to seasonal shifts, health changes, and evolving needs. It’s not just efficient — it’s more humane. When cattle are well-fed and well-cared-for, they thrive. And it shows in the final product.

A Transparent Journey

Consumers today want to know more. They want to understand what goes into their food, and they value quality over shortcuts. We welcome that curiosity.

At North 36 Farms, we’re proud to offer full transparency. We can tell you what each animal eats, how often it’s monitored, and how our grain-finishing system enhances both flavor and consistency.

Our promise: no guesswork, no compromises.
