How should a farm fill out the Beef Production section if they raise all their bull calves and some heifers sired by beef semen to finishing?
How should the purchased heifers and dry cows be accounted for on a farm that sells their calves and purchases replacements as needed?
How would you fill out the Percent Dry field when a farm has two facilities? One facility for calving and dry cows and another for all their lactating cows.
Why do we distinguish those animals raised off-farm (but returned to the farm later) from those that are raised only on-farm?
How should data be entered in a situation where calves are raised off-farm (only off) but return at 4 to 5 months of age?
What if the farm has multiple facilities? Do I need to do an ES evaluation for each separate facility?
