[QUOTE="aplusmnt, post: 263979, member: 1399"] This is not necessarily true, just because there is many small operations does not mean that they are making a profit. Some maybe doing it for tax breaks as Backhoeboogie mentioned, the cattle can be loosing money and as a separate venture they save on Property taxes so it works for them. But small time Cattle operations are a lot different than a normal business. If my Janitor business goes in the red, my family has no roof over there heads and we starve or I quit and get a new job. If a small time Cattle Operation looses money, they take there Janitor money and buy some hay many times. So just because many small guys exist is not a sure sign that it is profitable. Part-time farming, ranching, Hobby Farming might be one of the only business that will exist even if people loose money. Most all other businesses would fold and do something else. [/QUOTE]
