[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1799835, member: 25884"] We both "work a job in town" so to speak and yet we are running 125+ brood cows so how does that figure into whether we are a hobby farm or a for profit operation? We did not retain many heifers this spring with the high prices, but will retain more out of the 2022 fall calved cows that will be getting brought in and calves weaned off of... IF they are good enough to be retained "normally"..... We have culled a little more heavily this spring with the prices.... and because we have lost 2 places that have been sold..... And we do strive to be a "for profit commercial operation".... they need to pay the bills.... [/QUOTE]
