[QUOTE="Bestoutwest, post: 1617764, member: 19397"] I just wonder if the Angus breed as it's focus is swinging to pounds on the hoof (ex SAV cattle), are they losing sight of profitability in the future? Meaning as we're breeding for bigger cattle that put on more pounds NOW, while feed is relatively cheap and easy to find, what will the impact be during a drought or if there is a sudden expansion of civilization into the farmland (which I'm seeing in SW ID)? I'm not kidding about it here in Idaho. You can drive around and see field after field of land going from farmland to housing literally from one growing season to the next. It's kind of scary.
