[QUOTE="rocfarm, post: 1766719, member: 42715"] Watched a video by Ron Gill, a professor at A&M. Was a bit shocked when he said, “You are most likely not going to make money at cattle. Determining what losses are acceptable is probably what you need to do.” I take that to mean I’m in the land business and happen to run cattle for tax purposes and for enjoyment. Hard to quantify having your own space where you can hunt, fish, shoot, etc. privately, and cattle can improve your land if you run them correctly, so there’s that. But most of us are probably not shrewd enough to really and truly make a profit at this. But it’s fun! Really enjoy the pictures of the grain-finished cattle. [/QUOTE]
