[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 869047"] I've often wondered with people reporting here that they only profit 50 bucks a head..why bother? People sure have different ways of figuring profit. Using cattle profit to buy new tractors doesn't really cut into the cattle profit. I could buy 5 tractors. One for each purpose I think I would need, and take losses for the next 50 years. Or I can use one, or even 2 and accomplish the same things. Haying fields should be considered seperate on the spread sheet. Then balance the hay against the cows by figuring out what the hay costs and what you could buy it for. Or hire out the haying. There's just so many ways to figure things, but to do it right with cattle, I think you gotta keep each area seperate and figure where your losing, profiting, and adjust accordingly. Of course, I'm just in this crazy game for fun and maybe a forced savings account.but I can tell you exactly what each one cost per day [/QUOTE]
