In a recent online poll, Progressive Cattleman asked, “What is your culling rate?”
Only about 6.2 percent said they have a culling rate above 20 percent. A few more, 13.4 percent of readers, said they have a 16 to 20 percent culling rate. Many of the readers, about 36.1 percent, have a lower culling rate of 10 to 15 percent.
However, most producers (44.3 percent) are keeping their culling rate much lower – below 10 percent.
