[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1802595, member: 1682"] Talking to the local guys in their 50s and up, none are looking to expand beyond their pre-drought cow numbers. Equipment, land and labor is too expensive to hang a fresh new rope of 1M debt around your neck at age 55 and 8% interest. Most are looking to hit the cows hard this fall (15-20% cull rates) and be steady in heifer retention. Which means the long term movement is still contraction in the cowherd. [/QUOTE]
