Описание: Most people have no idea what it really costs to raise a beef cow from calf to freezer.
Today, we’re breaking down every hidden expense — from pasture to plate.

This video shows the exact cost of raising, finishing, and butchering a beef cow, including calf prices, grazing costs, feed, health care, infrastructure, butcher fees, and final yields. If you’re planning to raise your own beef (or just wondering what your food REALLY costs), this guide is essential.

You’ll learn:
• Calf purchase or cow-calf production costs
• Grazing, hay, winter feed & mineral costs
• Health care, vaccinations & routine herd expenses
• Infrastructure: fencing, barns, water systems
• Grass-fed vs grain-finished cost comparison
• Kill fee, cut/wrap costs, grinding fees & add-ons
• What carcass weight, hanging weight & retail yield actually mean
• How much meat you REALLY get back
• How to calculate your true cost per pound of home-raised beef

Raising your own beef isn’t just about money — it’s about pride, transparency, and knowing exactly what goes into your food.
