[QUOTE="Subsoil, post: 73185, member: 1099"] Here's my take on using the $100 profit (or the $75 for that matter). That meen that for every producers that's making $75 per head, there's another producer making $175 per head and another producers loosing $25 per head. Averages don't matter - you just have to find out where you can produce the most pounds of beef that your land will produce. Who knows, you might be better off selling your grass as hay rather than as beef. A more tangible average would be the hourly pay rate on the time you spend caring for your herd. More than likely, most of us would be better off farther down the production chain if we wanted a good hourly wage in this business - somewhere in final distribution like flipping burgers or waiting tables.
