[QUOTE="Farminlund, post: 245106, member: 1132"] Most interesting. I did not mean to sound off with the guru comment - no disrespect intented - sorry, as I reread, it was not appropriate. I will say that their lack of a restocking program was a major issue for their business as it was for my friend. In retrospect, they needed that plan as much (or more) as their destocking plan. My limited experience is that cattle genetics are harder to replace than forage establishment. During the '02 drought I maintained most of my herd through feed purchases while taking a hit on estabished forage - that has returned with time & reseeding with a no-till drill. I do not think I would be in the same situation had I let my cattle go - just my 2 cents worth. [/QUOTE]
