[QUOTE="Earl Thigpen, post: 530685, member: 3999"] Well, it figures. Just my rotten luck. Work for thirty years to get my place ready to produce some meaning- ful income for when I retire from my day job and the economy goes to s___. I live in an area in Texas where a lot of rice is grown and I don't see the panic going on with those folks to produce more. Usually, like corn, when there "appears" to be a shortage and the price goes up for that commodity you see folks putting every piece of arible land they have into production. Ain't happenin here. So that's why I asked the question. Well, I've got about 50 head of 5 to 6 weight calves that I'll PO and the sale barn if they don't bring a decent price. They ain't gettin' them for nothing even if I have to take it in the shorts. I still have a couple hundred bales left from last year so I'll just feed them if that's what it takes. (And it may because we've only had 1.25 inches of rain in the past 2 months - pastures are starting to look bad.) Man, don't ya just love it!!!!! I think I'll get a Holstien bull and make a pet out of him :lol: :lol: :lol: [/QUOTE]
