CATTLE STOCKERS

[To my] Fellow Farmers & Ranchers..............?

How has the current state of the economy effected you and your agricultural operation?
We [dryland] farm and have a cow/calf operation. The cattle market keeps getting hammered! Of course this dry weather is wreaking havoc on the cattle market (especially calves and stockers), but the overall economy is having effects, too.


Yes the economy has effected us. We are hanging on by our fingernails and toenails. We are dairy farmers and are getting about half the price for our milk that we were a year ago. No doubt the cattle market is down so many dairy cattle are being culled. The income is not keeping up with the outgo; and spring planting is coming soon. To add insult to injury just go grocery shopping and notice that the price of dairy products in the store has not come down. What's the solution?
