when they 'broke even' on dollars, does he include yardage, feed, meds, depr., ect.? Just cost of calf and feed? Just curious, because I hope it include everything.
included all his cost
Maybe my brother will add to this post-I'm just a neighbor and brother-we do not farm together-I sourced the cattle and looked at them about 6 weeks before they where shipped-came in off the cow-they gathered them off there 1200 ac trap the morning the trucks where there-the truckers are 1 mile from my brother-My family and theres go back to the 1940's on the trucking end-I rode with there Grandpa in his truck to Omaha several times-1965-1970 time frame-The calves came off a mother and Daughter partnership-then run600- 700 cows on 20,000 plus acres-we had a chance to buy the heifers because of the drought-so all heifers were sold last year-no creep and bawling babys when they came in
