[QUOTE="moses388, post: 1735112, member: 27368"] [URL='https://beef.unl.edu/aum-calculations']160 acres x 0.4 AUM per acre = 64 AUM[/URL] I am new to AUM. I agree with the math in your example, but it seems too simple because many cattle weigh over 1000 pounds. Do you account for AUEs (animal unit equivalent)? The average AUE per grazing pair is 1.4 AUE. 64 AUM ÷ 1.4 AUE = 45 pair for 1 month I can see how leases can be calculated using AUM. Pasture that can produce more forage would bring more money. Seems similar to other leasing methods. [/QUOTE]
