[QUOTE="js1234, post: 994132, member: 17596"] Seems way, way too low. We break our mother cows down into 650 cow units for accounting purposes as counting fence guy, cowboys etc we have one salary per 650 head and labor is our single biggest non-land cost. This is hired men, not returns to ownership which is not counted. So land, hay, meds, salt, minerals, hired man salary/ins/bens, his truck fuel and maintenance, horse care, road/fence/h2o maintenance, bull cost and misc. would come up to around $650 per cow. I'm in my truck on my iPad so I could certainly be off by $50, and if I'm forgetting something big, I'll edit my post. None the less, I run a few more than 50 cows and I couldn't get 6 months in the books for $300/cow. Would be nice though. [/QUOTE]
