[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1755040, member: 694"] I predict a lot are out for good. When the average age is 60+ for cattlemen in Texas. I have already seen the decline. The small operations is what keeps the Ag industry alive like all small businesses. You don’t need a local tractor dealership for two or three big operators. It has been a land utilization operation all my life. In my area it’s just not being used for cattle anymore. Last USDA figures I saw there were 247,000 operations in the state, the vast majority were small herds. You can’t backfill that it’s an acreage thing. [/QUOTE]
