[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 993982, member: 9"] I think those $300 to $500 costs per cow are definitely underestimated. To get a "truer" picture of one's costs one needs to include "overhead" expenses of one's ranch operation: insurance, office expenses, depreciation, etc. If, however, a rancher does not have any hay to buy or rent/lease/loan payments, no Vet expenses, no repair & maintenance expenses on equipment or infrastructure (aka overhead on the latter) then it is "possible". Including ALL of one's direct and indirect costs of their operation (not even considering "wages" for oneself) would easily raise the annual cost per 1000# animal between $500 and $800 a year considering today's feed, hay, fuel, etc., costs.
