[QUOTE="Beef Man, post: 1075244, member: 13859"] A super lot of change in just 50 years. No the weights and gains are a lot more,for one thing. If we had the numbers and gain ability of the cattle of 150 years ago our country would be short of beef but through advances in genetics and improved management we are supplying as much or more meat from a lot less cows. All to the good but it darn sure does take a bunch more inputs[money] to make it work. Also I wonder if we are'nt takeing a lot of the natural instincts from our cattle. Cold snap,they head for the house,calving time they look for a shed,never been without water,so don't know that abunch of snow will work, Grass gets a little short creep the calves and the list goes on. I do know where there still is some cows that still can survive a whole lot without a human stepiing in . [/QUOTE]
