[QUOTE="Agrivator, post: 6812273, member: 461"] Suckler cows are unusual in that traditionally they have not been a method of making spare cash to live on. If you want cash, then you need to work for a living - hens, calf rearing, pigs, retailing whatever you can produce and retail. But Suckler Cows have historically been a way of building up wealth, and when the time comes to cash them - to buy out a sibling, to buy land, to provide a retirement sum at the farm sale - they are usually the most valuable asset to sell. Always remember that there isn't much value in a field of stubble or even in a flock of run-of-the-mill ewes. But a herd of good cows with calves at foot has long been the equivalent of camels to an Arab Gentleman. [/QUOTE]
