I keep my Angus heifers now as prices are poor for calves but yet i see my barren dairy heifers making over £1000.
Grass reared is the way to make it pay.

Someone once said to me when I was thinking of growing our beef calves on, there are three people in the chain, the breeder , the rearer and the finisher.
At any time only one of these will make a profit, but none of them knows who it will be.
We are still selling our calves at 8 weeks.
