Better Handling Of Livestock Key To Farm Profits
A Iowa State College study of over 200 farmers on 160 acre plots shows the top third earned an average $3,640 while the bottom third lost $643. Higher returns came from turning feed into livestock more efficiently, better herd quality, disease control, and adaptable management. Pigs weaned averaged 6.5 per litter for top farmers vs 5.5 for bottom, and corn yields reached 66 vs 62 bushels per acre, boosting profits by about $11 per acre.
