[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 606500, member: 9096"] Here, get this, we have to put up with our neighbors cattle because there is open range around our property.. and how much does the rancher pay to have his cows pestering us? $2.50 CDN per cow/calf pair.. PER MONTH!! if that isn't a subsidy I don't know what is... meanwhile, the forestry (in charge of range) had to pay for a drift fence around our place for the tune of 15,000... and we still have to deal with these critters and their owners If I could keep our 20 cow herd anywhere else for a month I think 500-1000 would be a reasonable price to pay.. I'm not saying i'd make money at this price, but I never will, but if you think 10 bales of reasonable hay a day (there are calves) at 5 bucks a bale, minus the cost of actually baling it... this should be a price for the owner of the property... it works out to roughly .75-1.50 per cow per day... I would expect a nice pasture where I will see a 3lb/day gain on most calves [/QUOTE]
