Costs of Bull Ownership - Why trading in your old bull makes sense!!
There are two important factors to consider when trading in your old bull: "The first is the salvage value of the bull" and "the second consideration is the genetic value of the 'new' bull." "An investment in new genetics, especially maternal traits, is still a wise move". "With the prices we are seeing plus the renewed enthusiasm for a bright future in the beef industry it just makes good economic sense to invest in better genetics. When prices are high the lost economic opportunity from poorer performing cattle is even greater. Simple as that!"
(Gelbvieh guide - Spring 2012; Dr. Colin Palmer, Associate Professor of Theriogenology (Animal Reproduction) at the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.)
