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?
