[QUOTE="AinisR28, post: 1843607, member: 43530"] Hey, I'm from Latvia. Here Limousine and Charolais breeds sells the best, especially because of local cattle auction house, where best prices always are both for purebred and crosses of limousines and Charolais. So I understand that buying Angus or Hereford heifers and bull goes against current situation of cattle market. About our plan, I'd say, since we own very limited amount of land, most of them will be sold as a weanlings, couple of best heifers we will keep as a replacements, and maybe few will be kept until age of 1.5-2 years to be sold then. Answering to your next comment, Yes, we still have good amount of dairy cows, some of them very big Holsteinians and crosses, and we're going to keep them for some time because of their big frame and amount of milk. Only question is what breed of bull use on them. Although it would be easier to find limousine or charolais bull, all the stories we've heard about them being agressive and even attacking farmers here, make me hesitant. [/QUOTE]
