NE Iowa | Good analysis, OldMcDonald, but allow me to add some more. Cattle producers have a whole another set of equipment to purchase, ie skid loaders, manure spreaders, feeder wagons/other feeding equipment, chore tractor, chutes ,handling tubs, livestock trailers/bull rack, and last but not least added fuel @$3.40/gal
I've been asked many times why do I run a cow/calf herd of approx 500 head? The anwser is simple.....when I drive by my pastures and see those black mamas/calves sprinkled against the green grass, it brings a feeling of accomplishment and contentment,plus its what I do, its a love. The second part of the answer today is I'm finally getting paid on sale day | |
