Little higher-wonder why they didn't tack on another $25 on there fat price-
neighbor sold at $170 in the beef-then yield 63.4@1400-his check was around $1500 a head-about $108 live-packer could pay $165 to break even-$57 up for the packerx1400=$798 profit -packer sends out 1400x$5 tip-$70
I thought waiters got a 10- 15% tip-There $9 short if it was a bad waiter.
I guess when we sell live cattle from now on we need to ask for the tip up front
Maybe its time the packer kicks in $50 a head to the check off instead of the cattle men at a dollar
