[QUOTE="novatech, post: 738505, member: 5494"] No argument here. The cost of production is what is on every one's mind today. I do think however that if one breeds for one thing he does not necessarily have to give up on the other. I think that is where the commercial cattleman comes into play. Generating crosses from highly economical cows that do well in the feed lot and produce profitable beef. A bull that falls apart in the pasture will generally be less efficient in the feed lot. There are way to many bulls being sold that are fed up to be sold and end up not making it in the pasture. I don't mind those that polish up a bull but when they do it to deceive buyers it is definitely unethical. [/QUOTE]
