About this episode
If you were to analyze the direct expenses associated with your cow enterprise (s), one of bigger numbers falls under the category of Feed Costs. Jim Gerrish, author of the book "Kick the Hay Habit", is my guest as we look at how our industry evolved over the past 75 years to a heavy reliance on substitute feeding on our ranches during the winter months. We'll cover why modifying your production cycle may lessen your feed costs, to analyzing the forage attributes of your ranch, matching that to you’re the right enterprise and squaring looking at your costs associated to your gross sales.
