For those who don't know various feed conversion ratios offhand:

{Type of meat} - {FCR, Edible Weight} - {Conversion efficiency %, caloric} - {Conversion efficiency %, protein}

Beef - 36 - 2.9% - 2.5%

Pork - 6 - 9% - 9%

Chicken - 4.2 - 13% - 21%

(specifics vary according to method, but cross species comparisons remain similar)

I had to look it up, but FCR is "Feed Conversion Rate", or "food in over product out", so lower is better.
