I know a man who worked on farm in Argentina, the farm was 60 miles by 60 miles they had more horses than cows , very interesting stories he has about it .

Sounds like a song

Neither.
As I say, it wasn't directed at you.
Though I think it's "her"?

Like I say, easy to come over very harsh in our 'quick' typing. Some people easily knocked back by it and refrain from replying or getting involved.
Something said with a smile or the right tone of voice in a pub or at market easily becomes condemning on here.

aye I am a her. And I think you should say sorry

Brazil set to up beef production by 35% by 2030 as posted on the agriland website

Is that government backed/verified for the country as a whole? Or just talking to ranchers/farmers? As I would like to think by 2030 I'll be doubling production so up by 100% but my individual circumstance won't affect much nationally.

What do you reckon has these breeding cattle as dear as they are?
Everyone you talk to getting rid of cows and doom and gloom but when you try to buy any they look dear

Im not sure, i suppose cull cow values has made them lift abit hasnt it for those in that system.
Im probably the wrong person to ask, i cant remember the last time a cow/heifer and calf unit came onto this farm... must be over 20 years since.....we're maybe wrong though, soon get a return off something with a calf at foot dont you.
There are lots of things hard to weigh up......like heifers and calves at £2300 but then later in the sale incalf heifers at £2500 upwards, folk rather pay more to have the risk of calving these shapey heifers!

That really directed at me?

 

[Northeastfarmer]

I wish people would be more direct on this thread…would make it easier to understand who was directing what at who

 

[muleman]

Not much too look forward to getting old from what I’ve seen

Only one thing worse than getting old. .......not getting old!

No point in being huffy around here
Been shouted at all lambing and handed a bit back out plenty of lambs so it seems to have worked whatever else

Brazilian meat association.

New proposed meat plant in Ireland they say that they can no longer rely on Britain sourcing beef from there !
Good

 

[Farmer 83563]

I have kept a group seperate from the bull ready to cull in the autumn, cant keep problems with the cull price where it is.

My new one strike and out plan started this week with a first calver that was c-sectioned this spring - made 255ppk!!

Any news on cattle from them?

 

[JSmith]

Sometimes still get the silent treatment though

That’s generally because they’re looking up the words I used in the dictionary

Sometimes still get the silent treatment though

If I have an attempted silent treatment I start a row again usually breaks the silent treatment
