“Grain Fed” vs “Grass Fed”. Grain is the fruit of grass.

Grains are the fruit of grass plants. Is there a scientific explanation for why the two are separated in lifestock feed advertising or is it just marketing?

Answer 1

Just because they’re technically from the same plant does not mean they’re identical. Just as eating an apple isn’t the same thing as eating an apple leaf or the bark of an apple tree, grass and grains have different nutritional values, and affect the quality and flavour of the beef. It’s not just marketing.
