[QUOTE="Aero, post: 191494, member: 2076"] i assume you are pretty much a commercial operation. i am not saying that amount is bad or good, just trying to see where this takes us. if your cow cost is $392/hd and you have a 95% conception rate and let's imagine that a calf costs nothing. i realize how impractical this is, but just ride it out. that makes your cost to produce a calf: $392 / .95 = $412.63/calf. selling at the 400 lbs i think i recall you saying you sell at gross would be $600 / calf @ $150/cwt. so at best, profit per calf would be $600 - $412.63 - calf cost. estimate calf cost @ $10/calf in vaccinations etc. so $177/calf profit? sounds like good results to me and still above average for an upcycle year. what did i miss?
