The other day I made the mistake of stopping at the feed store and asked what the fall contract for 20% cubes would be.........$360/ton :???:
Well in thinking about this, when I came down to help Mom after Dad passed away in 2000, we were getting the same thing for $156/ton or $3100/truck load. Now it is $7200 per truck load. It got us to thinking of selling everything at the end of the year and leasing the ranch out but staying on the HQ to keep the water going and make sure nothing happens to the fences.
We are on a 150 AUM outfit but are only running 130AUM and with the latest rains got lots of grass :lol: We are thinking of maxing the lease between 100 to 140 AUMs at the moment.
Would anyone out there have some generic leases that I can look at that is fair to both sides? If you do not want to post them send them by PM or PM me for an email address.
