Canadian Livestock Marketing Costs.
“It has been announced in the press that Quebec farmers are receiving a
few dollars only for grass-fed calves, and from $10 up for cows, steers,
etc.,” reports the American vice consul at Montreal. “The farmer sells
his steer to the drover for 5¢ a lb. on the hoof. The latter sells to
the abattoir for 6¢, and, after he has paid his overhead expenses,
freight, shrinkage, etc., he makes an average of about $5 on each
animal. The abattoir figures on a profit of about $6 on an average
steer. There is little or no profit made on the forequarters, and for
this the hind-quarters must compensate.”
