[QUOTE="Cattle Rack Rancher, post: 30327, member: 245"] ollie I don't actually go to the auctions, so I can't be specific as to what each pair looks like. But my brother sold a nice Simm cross cow with a 200 lb calf at side and got $800.00 for her about US $625.00. He also sold a good 940 lb tarentaise steer and got 47 cents a lb about 35 cents US. Land up here depending on what you are looking for: sandy land where you can graze 30 pairs on a quarter section runs about $250.00 Cdn. Top quality potato land with irrigation runs around $2000.00 Cdn. Good grazing land runs around $500.00-$750.00 Cdn. The biggest problem we have up here is the uncertainty. If we knew the border wasn't going to open, we would build processing plants and try to open other markets to boxed beef. If the Americans are coming back into the market, this is probably futile as we can't compete with the American dollar. [/QUOTE]
