Estimated Production and Expenses for Beef Cow-Calf Enterprises in Five Regions of the U.S.

Detailed cost of production estimates for "typical" beef cow-calf enterprises in five regions of the United States are presented for 1974 and 1975. The cost estimates are identified and grouped so that estimates of the selling price of feeder cattle needed to cover various categories of cost can be computed. Plans are to update them periodically.
