...yes, you guessed it, questions. This info is probably on loads of different threads and in very vague bits and pieces, I'm not being lazy, just trying to pull it all together
I'm trying to do a bunch of calculations and it would help if people could answer the following based on suckler cows:
- How much does a cow cost you per year to keep?
- What do you pay for grazing acre/year?
- How much hay/silage/concentrates etc. do you allow for per animal per year ?
- What percentage losses do you allow for (livestock, not financial!) a year?
- How much do you allow/does medication and vet bills cost you per animal/per year?
I know that this will vary massively from individual to individual, because the way that each person keeps their cows is different, but just trying to keep things simple and would really appreciate it if you answer even just one of the questions very simply.
Thanks in advance lads and lasses and enjoy your evening
