City Guy turns over new leaf

[City Guy]

I'm tired of fighting; from now on I'll ask only easy questions.

Is there a website that tracts up-to-date data on costs of raising cow/calf? I want itemized info with range of costs.

Not that I'm aware of. There are to many variables between what I do and my neighbor does . it has to be farm specific to be worth a dam

Lot of variables but extension agent in my state was able to give me something like this with estimated costs. I would try contacting your local extension agent.

I thought sure there would be a "one size fits all" answer

I fixed it for you Dun. (Someone told me we're supposed to use purple text to denote sarcasm.)

The data is old, but you can make your budget on a spreadsheet by plugging your numbers:

If you like that site, you'll probably also like riding Pharaoh's Fury at Wild Adventures.

just figure your actual costs. any program will figure big money for your time

found one sight that estimated the average cost of raising a weaned calf in Nebraska in 2016 will be $1100.00. Does that seem correct? It did not give a range, but even 20% lower would not leave much, would it?

I think if either of us learn anything from reading these fellows, it is that it don't always math out so well.
