Is it cheaper to raise a cow for meat?
You can taste the difference! Price-While the cost of feed can be a lot up front, the cost of natural grass fed beef is much cheaper to raise than to buy in the store. Our local butcher charges a $55 kill fee (divided by how much of the beef you purchase) and $. 50 per lb cut and wrap.
Is buying a whole cow worth it?

A whole or a half cow is comparable in price when you break down the hanging weight and finished cuts price per pound. But a quarter cow is more expensive than both, running between $8.07 – $13.04 per pound. 5 Okt 2022
