[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1032528, member: 18945"] They now have a restaurant in New Roads and it actually sells something besides mud bugs??? My but things have grown since I was there in the late 70s :D There are so many "ifs" involved in raising pure grass fed beef it would be hard for most to plan for all of it, thus also difficult to plan the math. Drought, flood, army worms, hay shortages--it would be tough, tho most of us are raising "mostly" grass fed, meaning our cattle are on grass while they are in our possession--a little feed to keep them "friendly" being the exception here at my place, but I don't claim to have 100% grass fed. I'd like to see someone go to a store, buy or price 1lb of every cut of beef (including 75% lean hamburger, cold cuts, and beef hot dogs) and then average it out to see what the retail consumer is actually paying for the conventional non-grass fed beef. I suspect it has been done by someone, but I just haven't seen it. I just sell on-the-hoof at the salebarn or to individuals, so I won't be much help here other than bumping this up for ya. [/QUOTE]
