BeefTalk: Grandma and Grandpa Are Worried!
SEPTEMBER 8, 2015 01:08 PM - Beef Today
Cost control is the key to long-term success in the cow-calf business. By: Kris Ringwall, Beef Specialist, NDSU Extension Service
From the turn of the century, the year 2000, the average cost of raising a calf has almost doubled.
Today’s cow-calf producers are enjoying a revenue stream never before realized by the industry. This is good. So why are grandma and grandpa worried?
The current generational discussions - whether causal chit-chat while doing chores or a formal meeting of the minds - have indicated a breather from always having to worry about where the next dollar will come from. Those who have lived without never forget what that means.
However, unfortunately, those who never have lived without really cannot fathom what it means. This creates a bit of a divide between generations in what are some good times. Is the divide real? Yes, it is. Should the divide be a family talking point? Absolutely.
