[QUOTE="Muletrack, post: 1668085, member: 30827"] Yes, price slide effect. Also some are sized so they'll finish at a time when futures are low. Still, to make it work (and actually pay bills and pay down some debt), you have to have more of those smaller cows -- I guess about a third more. But, as Kit Pharo says in his "Aha Moment," a 50,000 lb. load of 450 lb. steers is worth more money than the same 50,000 lb. load of 600 steers. The difference is 28 more calves.
