Do I need a feedlot permit?
A feedlot permit is required if you have 10 or more animal units on your site at any one time. That would be equal to:
  • 10 slaughter steers
  • 14 feeder cattle
  • 33 finishing hogs

Call Environmental Services at 507-934-7070 if you’re for help figuring animal units.
