One of the biggest costs on a ranch is feed.  For profit minded ranchers, it's not the gross numbers that count, it's the NET numbers.  Bryson Byergo, (NW Missouri) and Brian Herbolsheimer (NE Nebraska) are my guests, as we talk feed efficiency in our cattle herds.  How it impacts profitability through feed costs, longevity, and increased production… and one factor that distracts ranchers from truly being committed to a “feed efficient” herd.
