[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 1315695, member: 7509"] A few years ago both Iowa State and the U of MN had numbers of around $500-550/yr to keep a cow I think currently that would have to be 600-700. I use $650. for the cow plus 50% of that to get a spring calf to January. So $975 is my breakeven on a calf sold in January though I don't really sell calves. This is in the north where we have to feed stored feeds for 5-6 months of the year. South would be less. [/QUOTE]
