Should You Expand Your Cowherd?
Should you Expand Your Cowherd? is the topic of today’s lead headline on BEEF Daily. And, I would guess that is the exact question alot of you are asking yourselves this fall.
After preg-checking cows last weekend, my dad and I are in debate about how many cows we should cull and how many replacement heifers we should keep. In 2007, we made pretty aggressive cuts in our cowherd, so the big issue this year is the number of heifers to retain and feed throughout the winter.
