[QUOTE="cmjust0, post: 151903, member: 2882"] I just don't think people realize how much beef is readily supplied to the market at a loss, or even at a meager gain that MUST be supplemented by outside income... Imagine the price of beef if all the sideliners, the so-called "hobby farmers," and all the other little guys stopped producing.. It would skyrocket... Anyway, I've heard that you can make more money with roughly the same time, effort and acreage if you add meat goats to your lineup, but that's about as close as I can come to "fast money".. Apparently, cattle naturally ignore about 90% of a goat's diet anyway, so there's very little overlap.. They say it's pretty much 'just add goats' and make more money. I've seen a lot of goats in my neck of the woods lately, so there might be something to it.. [/QUOTE]
