Heifers Turned to Profit In Brookover’s Modern Lot
Brookover’s Garden City yard raises 21 000 heifers using a new feed mill and mechanized mixing to cut costs. The operation emphasizes sanitation, fly control, and nutrition to maximize gain. Cattle are bought as heifers and finished to choice grade, shipped regionally, with daily water and a 115 to 120 day feeding period yielding about 2.25 to 2.5 pounds daily gain. Manure sales add profit, valued at seven to eight dollars per ton, with nitrogen, phosphate, and potash content highlighted.
