Cost advice for beef operators

Any new business can benefit from the guidance of those more experienced, and starting a beef operation is no different.

In order to share the wisdom of seasoned producers with the next generation, Canfax Research Services asked 180 participants of the Canadian Cow-Calf Cost of Production Network for their advice on starting a cow-calf operation.

The resulting recommendations, which fall into broad categories of financial management, record keeping, production and marketing, networking, and passion, have been compiled into a new fact sheet available online at canfax.ca.
