[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 602685, member: 4353"] For me its not so much structural problems that causes cows to be culled, but rather teeth. With my grazing conditions the teeth don't hold up much longer than 10, bearing in mind my cattle have to browse more than they graze and when they graze the grass is short and the soil is sandy so its more of a biting action than the typical wrap the tongue around and cut with the incisors. I can not see how structural problems cannot affect longevity. People seems to forget its reproductive and productive longevity that counts and not simply a case of the cow being kept alive with life (feedbunk) support. [/QUOTE]
