Wow! Cattle prices haven&#039;t gotten any better, but they keep going up in the stores. In 1975. when I got out of the Army. Dad and I had a joint venture in angus show stock, well originally it started when I was young around 10 yrs. old, between my grandfather and me. Anyhow Dad and I decided to start keeping records and do some book keeping on this stock. At the end of 1 full year we assessed our situation, to find the cattle had increased our revenue by almost exactly the same amount the market price of the feed they consumed. We sold all the cattle, then produced and sold feed, haven&#039;t looked back and have no regrets. The really big advantage is I don&#039;t have to feed and water the stock or clean out the barn, which leaves me more room for Olivers!!!
