[QUOTE="lakading, post: 164870, member: 3173"] The fact that commercial cattle producers would spend $50/straw on semen at all (let alone on an unproven sire) is the most rediculous thing I've ever heard. Why not go buy your own unproven bull for $10,000 and have all the semen you want collected for about $1.50/straw? Heck if you get 207 straws, you still only have $10,310.50 invested in him. That comes out to $49.81 per straw. Any # of straws over 207 is saving you $48.50 on each cow or heifer bred. I may be missing something, but I prefer easy math :D . [/QUOTE]
