[QUOTE="OklaBrangusBreeder, post: 191737, member: 2672"] My actual, out of pocket costs for 2005 (per my tax return) were about $180 per mother cow.... - $72/head Hay = I raise my own bermuda grass, cost was about $18 per bale including fertilizer and custom baling (I mow and rake, a neighbor charges for the baling). 4 bales per head gets them through the winter fine in my part of the country. - $45/head = Fertilizer & Winter wheat/pasture mix planting. - $55/head = Range Cubes - $8/head = Fuel/equipment maintenance. * Didn't have any vet/med costs last year on my breeding stock (lucky year). * No fencing/barn costs. Invested in those too many years ago to bother including anymore. * I/family own the land. I didn't include any cost of land in my amount as I view that asset (land) as an investment of its own which appreciates in value over the years. [/QUOTE]
