More info

Grass and forage after weaning through finishing.
A lifetime forage diet excludes grain, including during finishing. Grass-fed beef generally has more omega-3 fat and a lower omega-6 to omega-3 ratio than grain-fed beef.
Organic feed
Good
Yes
Organic feed standards restrict synthetic pesticides and exclude genetically engineered crops. Organic grain is still grain.
GMO feed
Good
Excluded
Non-GMO feed excludes genetically engineered crops from the ration.

Antibiotics & hormones
No antibiotics
Excellent
Raised with no antibiotics ever.
Routine antibiotic use can select for resistant bacteria. A no-antibiotics supply commitment keeps treated animals out of that programme; sick animals still need care.
No added hormones
Excellent
No added hormones.
Added growth hormones accelerate weight gain. We would choose meat raised without that intervention.
