[QUOTE="hurleyjd, post: 1295707, member: 4674"] We are just beginning to see the real cost of the oil downturn. There will be a lot of supporting equipment for sale by the lending institutions. A company in my area has hundreds of sand hauling trailers and heavy equipment hauling trailers. Another company in the area that buys oil at the well head now has hundreds of oil tanker trucks parked. Young men with high priced toys bought with high paying oil field jobs will have a problem paying the installment payments. I know a person that is managing three credit unions told me that we have the same thing in the automobile industry that was in the housing crisis his opinion was that this is about become a real problem. I think that I might survive in this market but not sure. Property tax this year is $4500 this will take the proceeds of six calves to meet the tax cost. Then there is insurance on everything. It will be very hard to eke out a profit next year. All pastures need limed.I think I will get some plywood and make cutouts of cows to move around to look like the pastures are full. Might fool the appraiser to be able to keep the AG exemption. [/QUOTE]
