Doubt About Drought


by Dave Pratt

     I received this email from a young rancher who wanted to increase cattle numbers but was worried about drought:
 
Dear Dave,
 
     I've got an efficient group of cows and my overheads are reasonably low. My problem is that I need to increase my numbers. I am sure I could run more animals right now but I am worried that in a dry year I won't have enough pasture and would have to destock. Looking for help and ideas to see what my options are.
 
Thanks,

LAUGH FOR THE DAY
 

Two cows are standing in a field and one says to the other, "So, how about that mad cow disease? Scary stuff, right?"  

To which the other replies, "Terrifying. But what do I care? I'm a helicopter."  
 
Upcoming Workshops


Knowing how to raise livestock is not the same thing as knowing how to run a business that raises livestock. This workshop will show you how to apply simple, proven and powerful business, economic and financial principles to your ranch. You will learn the 3 Secrets for Increasing Profit and how to use economic and financial benchmarks to identify your "profit drivers" and "dead wood." You'll see why most livestock operations are structured to lose money and find out what you can do about it.
 
Where: 34355 Gloria Road at the Abel Ranch, Gonzales, CA
When:  Saturday, June 25  9:45 - 11:45AM  and 2:00 - 4:00PM

Job Announcements

RMC will share both job postings and notices for someone seeking a position as a service to our Ranching For Profit School alumni. Job postings must clearly describe the position requirements and how and where an interested party should submit their resume. For those seeking a position, information provided must include job skills, experience, training and contact information.  RMC will not act as an intermediary so including good contact information is vital.

Postings will stay in 2 consecutive ProfitTips which are issued on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of each month. If a position is not filled or job not found in that time and you want the post to continue, you must contact RMC to make that request. No posting will run in ProfitTips for longer than 2 months.
