[QUOTE="Marty, post: 43104, member: 583"] Cattle are sold for just about any reason you can think of, and bought by others for several reasons. A lot of cows, steers, and bulls are sold for butcher at salebarns. Someone else will have to weigh in on butcher prices; we have a special rate with our butcher as Dad trades Alaskan halibut and salmon. Butcher shops are becoming hard to find in places, the cost of having a full time meat inspector there is what kills a lot of small town shops. Restaurant's? I've thought of that too but for me the location would be bad; lots of small town businesses going under. It wouldn't be hard to serve a better steak than what you can find in most restaurants. If you can find a niche, that would go a long way. We came across a cattleman that bought a quickstop gas station and sells his own processed beef there, he has a little bit of everything for sell which helps. [/QUOTE]
