If you plan to be in the cow-calf business for the long haul, you must be willing to change with the times. Nothing stays the same. The present is different from the past and the future will be different from the present. Today’s beef industry is not the same as it was just 20 years ago. The cost of inputs has doubled in the last 20 years! DOUBLED!
Will you survive the fall in cattle prices? The last time we were in a situation like this, the value of your calves was quickly cut in half. Be honest with yourself… Can you be profitable with calves that are worth half what they are worth today? If not, you need to start making some major changes in your operation.
The only ones who will still be profitable after the fall in calf prices will be those who have significantly lowered their cost of production, while significantly increasing their production per acre! The key to long-term success in the cow-calf business is to Produce MORE for LESS! Pharo Cattle Company™ has the genetics and the philosophies you need to produce more for less.
