A couple of questions on selling farm raised beef, I currently sell farm raised beef for $2 a pound hanging plus slaughter, cut and wrap fees. I grain the steers for 60 to 90 days, plus they have free choice hay or grass. I'm feeling with feed cost that's too cheap.
1. What are you charging for your farm raised beef and do you grain the beef before slaughter?
2. What is your ideal live weight for the beef at slaughter time?
Thanks,
Alan
