NS Canada | Here's that article on the $60 figure:
http://www.beefmagazine.com/cow-calf/2016-benchmarks-beef-cows
'In summary, gross income per cow averaged $894 per cow. Total economic costs averaged $834 per cow, leaving an earned economic net return (before labor and management) of $60 per cow.'
So with the avg of 177 cows per herd in that study > 177*60= $10,620... which is just over half of what your average mcdonalds worker makes.
