[QUOTE="IluvABbeef, post: 573198, member: 3739"] I was reading in the Beef Science book that when you have stockers you can adjust to "feed supplies and economic outlook, thus the number of stockers purchased each year may be altered accordingly." But really its hard to judge how many head to get each year because what if the "economic outlook" suddenly went downhill when you were in the middle of feeding up the stockers, such as the BSE crisis, (here I'm kinda repeating what you said) and not only that, what if a drought suddenly came up unexpectedly, right when you thought you were gonna have a good growing year? So there's just all sorts of things to consider when purchasing either stockers or cows. Thanks for your replies Aaron. :) [/QUOTE]
