Livestock Enterprise Budgets [Ag Decision Maker]

This tool contains estimates of production costs for common livestock enterprises in Iowa. Estimates are intended to reflect average or above average levels of management using common types of technology. Input prices reflect expected average price levels during the year. Data was drawn from farm record summaries, feed consumption research and price projections, and are intended to be used for planning purposes only. For individual farms, expected costs and input requirements based on past results should be substituted whenever possible.
