Advice
5. Use supplemental feed based on
need (i.e. feed test and balance
rations).
6. Develop a purchasing plan for
all items.
7. Look to alternative, cheaper
sources of feed.
8. Fit the cattle to the
environment, forage system and
management style of the owner.
9. Watch equipment costs.
10. Leave no rocks unturned;
evaluate bull -to -female ratio, use an
effective, cost-efficient health
program; minimize use of
convenience feedstuffs and products;
fine-tune heifer development and
make sure replacements calve by two
years of age. (Source: Larry Corah,
Kansas State University).
