Factors To Consider To Lower Cow-Calf Production Costs Production costs differ dramatically among U.S. cow-calf producers. Current annual data from the Cow-Calf IRM-SPA Report Card production costs ranging from $156 to $969 per breeding cow. These wide differences are due to the enormous variety of inputs, resources, and production and management practices used by cow-calf producers.
In calculating the winter feed costs, Hoppe figured a 1400-pound cow will either eat or waste 40 pounds of feed daily. Using a hay price of $65 per ton and figuring 180 days on feed with the winter ration that translates into a feed charge of $1.40 per day or $252 for six months.f a producer would like to realize a profit of $200 per head each year that would be an additional cost of $940 over the life of the cow, meaning that the value to pay for a bred heifer would be $1642.03. And that figure, Hoppe noted, is pretty close to what bred heifers are selling for at the current time.
