[QUOTE="Alberta farmer, post: 743632, member: 8978"] Working at a job to pay for the losses in cattle gets old real fast. I guess if you can see it turning around dramatically somewhere in the future it might be okay. Young people might want to put a lot more effort into it than older people who need to consider retirement? I guess when it isn't fun anymore you should think about quitting or doing something else. I've raised cattle pretty well my whole life. Have experienced the good times, as well as the bad. Somewhere along the line something has really gone wrong in the cattle business...well actually with most of agriculture. I'd sure hate to be starting out trying to finance a farm or ranch now. The fact is the big corporations have taken all the money out of a cow, leaving nothing for the farmer. I don't really see that trend changing. [/QUOTE]
