Yes and it has protein. The protein (grass, corn, wheat, soybean hulls, cottonseed meal and soy oils and others all of which contain protein, which is needed by the cows to grow their meat/bodies) is fed to the cow and is converted which is beef, which has protein. It can take from 7 to 25 pounds of vegetables to produce one pound of beef. The numbers are debatable and what is included in the numbers.
