Here is a crop that will produce healthier milk and tender beef

This makes the seed cheaper as hybrid corn is expensive and bred for grain. The Greenleaf portion yields the same whether OP or hybrid.

 Stands for Brown MidRib in which the stalk and leaves are lower in lignin. Greenleaf means it is harvested before the ear develops. Because BMR is lower in lignin, it is very digestible. Lignin also produces cross linkages to cellulose making some cellulose also non-digestible.

 Every crop has its advantages and disadvantages. The sorghum's and millet's are best under hot, dry conditions and also can regrow after grazing. However since corn will grow under cooler temperatures, BMR greenleaf is much better for late summer and fall seeding. This might be after a cool season forage crop in the very northern states or in most states after a cool season grain crop like winter wheat or even after spring grains. Planting 40 to 60 days before frost will produce a crop. A very interesting possibility is to seed it late July or early August with the cool season cover crop. The corn will keep the cover crop cool and then grow into the fall after the BMR corn is harvested for silage. With 30 million acres of winter wheat and probably another 20 million acres of col season crops , this could replace a lot of grain. A well known agronomist claims grass finished beef would free up 15 million acres of grain corn.

 Grain is high is high in Omega-6. Greenleaf corn produces the high anti-inflationary Omega-3 milk and meat. Unfortunately most grass fed meat is tough and not as good eating as grain finished beef. Much of this could be avoided with grass fed silage fed in the feedlot. With well fleshed stockers you can get them to market about as fast as grain finished.  You can find more health information on heathy foods or at https://www.webmd.com/diet/grass-fed-beef-good-for-you
