Hey guys. I'm still alive. I have a financal question about buying cows/heifers versus raising heifers. In the past years I've always bought cows either from the sale barn or from a neighbors etc. I know there are percs for both sides . Now my herd is to a point that I want to retain some heifers but I don't know how to justify loosing the revenue off the heifers I would retain . then its two years before you see the revenue from those heifers.some of the advantages are one most important dispostion ,genetics
I was curious how some of you penciled it out. Do you price the heifers at market price or at the cost of production
