I understand the need to have a expected weight, but if you are using 1200 as your ending weight is a little light isn't it? Raise that ending weight to 1300, that extra 100 pounds would add $135 to your available purchase price, for no more cost. For a 400# you now could spend $1,255 instead of $1,120.
Hmmn-does it cost more to feed them heavier?-I will keep my matrix at present levels to insure I stay in business-my feed cost on that next 100# will be more then $62- |
