Heifer-development costs generally donât vary as much from year to year. Statistically, the average cost of a perpetual herd is trending upward at the rate of $9.97/cow/year, which adds another $99/cow in costs every 10 years.I used this statistical trend to predict BCHRC for 2011 through 2015 (Figure 3).The predicted BCHRC for 2011 is $159/cow and for 2015 is $172/cow; the five-year average is $166/cow. Costs accelerating in biofuels era. Itâs worth noting that four of the five highest BCHRC years are in the biofuels era. In 2009, this was 52% of the cost of replacement females. 2  The cost of developing that potential heifer calf from a weaned calf to a preg-checked heifer transferred into the beef cow breeding herds. 3  In 2009, this was 48% of the average total cost of replacement heifers.
