Pssst! Wanna buy a beef?
I keep a few cows as landscape engineers. Among other interesting by-products
of a cow's metabolism is a calf every year. These calves are sold into a
future packed into a feedlot, tighter than Manhattanites.
If you have had second (or maybe even third) thoughts about the quality of
today's industrially produced beef, perhaps we can trade. I'll sell you an
"organic" beef for the same price as I would get from the stockyards. I'll
even haul it to the custom slaughterhouse where they can take off the fur coat
and replace it with the more familiar plastic one.
The estimated cost for 250 pounds of beef, cut wrapped, and frozen,
FOB Monticello, KY is as follows:
500 pounds live weight @ $0.80 = $400
250 pounds slaughter bill = $ 70
Reserve for unforeseen circumstances = $ 30
Total-> = $500 or $2.00 per pound in a 250 pound lot.
If this sounds interesting, contact Dave Beiter, ½ Fast Farm, Ritner, KY 42639
