Purina Animal Nutrition Unveils Second Edition of the Beef-on-Dairy Industry Report
Industry-leading experts provide valuable insights for stakeholders in the beef-on-dairy sector
ARDEN HILLS, Minn. (August 20, 2025) — Purina Animal Nutrition has unveiled the second edition of its Beef-on-Dairy Industry Report, offering producers an in-depth look at the evolving role of beef-on-dairy cattle in the U.S. beef supply chain.
The updated report features the latest data, market analysis and research-backed practices for improving beef-on-dairy outcomes from genetics and nutrition to on-farm management and marketing strategies.
Contributors include leading experts Patrick Linnell, CattleFax; Dr. Ruth Woiwode, University of Nebraska-Lincoln; Dr. Michael Steele, University of Guelph; Dr. Ty Lawrence, West Texas A&M University; Dr. Daniel Thomson, Production Animal Consultation, LLC; Bruce Cobb, Certified Angus Beef; and industry consultant Nevil Speer, alongside Purina Animal Nutrition and Land O’Lakes experts Dr. Tom Earleywine and Laurence Williams.
“Beef-on-dairy cattle now account for 12-15% of fed cattle slaughter, creating a steady source of quality beef at a time when native beef numbers are tight,” says Laurence Williams, beef-on-dairy development for Purina Animal Nutrition. “With intentional genetics, nutrition and management, this group of cattle can deliver consistent quality to consumers while adding lasting value throughout the supply chain.”
