[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1802445, member: 42463"] Please don't ignore that I said he was running too many cows if he doesn't have the grass to wean at heavier weights... You are always going to make more money weaning calves as late as possible with fewer cows on decent grass than to wean them early with more cows on grass that is declining to the point of starvation. If your carrying capacity is changing you have to change your stocking rate. That's a cold hard fact. Otherwise we might as well be selling bottle calves and carrying the cows without them feeding a calf at all. [/QUOTE]
