[QUOTE="irked, post: 675587, member: 7861"] anyone selling calves for $300 probably has more immediate concerns to be addressed than worrying about how much money packers make. if i sold calves for $300 i'd be looking at my own operation before i worried about somebody elses. the closer you can get your cattle to the plate, the more of that big money you can keep for yourself. put simply, someone is making cattle bigger and then processing them. the bigger you can make them, or the more you can process them, the more you get to keep.
