    Looking for ideas

    I'm a member of that group as well. Post things from time to time but the fact that every topic turns into a pissing contest takes away some of the value. Definitely need the popcorn somedays when reading through those topics.

    Looking for ideas

    Tried this elsewhere as well but have known this community for a long time and looking for your insight. We're a young operation, bought out our family farm when the grandparents died. We've transitioned more and more into producing seedstock. Selling replacement heifers and bulls by word of...

    Your Loving New Pet

    Stopped by a farm house over christmas to ask about duck hunting. Dogs acted just fine when I got out of the truck, even petted the one. Folks weren't home, turned around to get off the porch and the little yap master wouldn't let me down. Then he got his bigger mutt friend to join in, took...

    Dont get complacent

    Glad you're ok, I am more respect/fear of a cow with a new calf that I do a lot of things. I tag every calf but you're dam sure I'm doing it from somewhere safe everytime.

    Operational Transition

    This is sort of the path we have been headed down. Wasn't sure if we were the only ones to think this way. I like the idea of just borrowing the money and buying in only as far as the fact that I don't see today as a good time to borrow money on high dollar cows and a toppy feeling market...

    Operational Transition

    Currently in a trust, none of us are really sure how it is set up as they won't discuss with anybody in detail because they are scared of hurting people's feelings. We will consult a tax attorney and get things done correctly when that time comes. At this stage we are looking for ideas on how...

    Operational Transition

    Decision for slow transition has nothing to do with taxes. Grandparents are not ready to be done and I want more skin in the game. Essentially wanting to transition into a partnership without coming up with $300,000 to buy half the herd.

    Operational Transition

    Trying to find some ideas on how to work a family hand over of an operation. Grandparents are owners of the cattle and equipment today, they own about half the ground and rent the other half from my father. We are trying to come up with a way of passing ownership of the cowherd to me over...

    Checkoff

    I for one am tired of seeing checkoff advertising at industry functions and the only ads you see or hear in the media are a simple "Beef its what's for dinner." If we are paying for these people to advance our product they need to be combating the preconceived notions that are being pushed by...

    Point of no return

    It will probably be here in the city for the foreseeable future. She seems to handle the 3 hour commute to the farm pretty well and all the long hours associated so it will work for a while. Nesi- really wasn't nervous as the answer was pretty well known, She had been hounding my butt for a while

    Point of no return

    Asked the little woman to marry me out by Lava Hot Springs in Idaho. Don't know if it was the scenery or me, but she said yes. See if she mellows me out any.
