Today I read an article in the library out of Progressive Farmer or maybe it was Succesful Farming (I read through both of them). The article gave bits of advice on how to choose which cows to cull to lower cost. They listed the typical open/bred status, BCS, age, etc. The final piece of advice though really got to me. They advised culling the cows with Brahman influence. To me, this is not a criteria to cull a cow, especially if she passes all the other criteria. Granted, it was the last piece of advice, but still I think it is poor advice and could be viewed as slanted. I am almost surprised they didn't say cull them if they are not black.
End rant.
