Herds Earning Power From Culling Cows
In a study by Leonid Surnes and Samuel Frexec, Allen County’s Inland Farmer's Guide shows that culling low producers boosts average earnings. Three cows in Rhinhey farm yielded 470 pounds more feed, while annual fat return rose to $5010 against a $12,000 feed bill, saving about $6100 per herd with less labor and investment. An offspring from the high producer could be worth $14 more at six months than from a low producer.
