[QUOTE="mwj, post: 1493832, member: 491"] Whenever this topic comes up it is usually presented as an ''easy fix''. I would wager that most producers do not regularly weigh there cows and could not make an educated guess to the amount of forage produced per acre. If you do not have these figures all you can do is ''guess'' and hope you are correct. Maybe we should wean at 400# which would yield a high price per pound for the calf. Then you could cut back the feed to the cows and keep your costs much lower. [/QUOTE]
