Leave more questions for Amelia and Russell in the comments and they will answer them later today and tomorrow during breaks in their "chores". There isn't a typical day. We have to check all of our cattle several times a week throughout the year. It's is a chore in itself as we have over head of cows and replacement heifers on seven different locations within a mile radius.
In the winter, the cows are calving, so we have to check them daily. We also have to put hay out regularly and limit grazing the cattle on winter ryegrass.
In the spring and summer we perform our herd-health measures, cut hay and perform pasture maintenance. The majority of our calves sell through auction and leave mid-August. A few are sold throughout the year to restaurants.
We continue work in the hayfield in the fall, which quickly transitions into planting our winter forages. By November, we start our cycle over again with calving. One of us routinely gets a truck stuck in the mud when we know we shouldn't be driving in wet conditions. Especially this past winter in record-rainfall conditions, we got stuck at least weekly! The most unexpected thing we've experienced is the sheer camaraderie amongst our friends and neighbors in the farming community.

Previous experience working on a family farm fosters the work ethic and habits required in a small cattle operation. A large cattle farm requires an intense amount of labor. In some cases, family members may be needed to help with cattle management chores. Farmers, who must hire outside help, will find their income reduced by labor costs.
Small cattle farmers may learn what they need to know on the job, although some farmers gain knowledge by attending a technical school or community college that offers a degree program in agriculture, farm management or animal science.
Farmers, trained and educated in farm management, are likely to net a higher income than those without a farming background or education. Career Growth Switching Careers. Fluctuating prices in the beef market influence a cattle farmers income. Video of the Day.
