Wagyu different to all other breeds. , returns much higher per head. I recently sold wagyu (100%) steers to a major feedlot for $6/kilo at 420 kg thats about twice what Angus steers are making. Not sure what the main problem was perhaps debt levels are an issue , Regardless of how lucrative your enterprise is if it is dealt a blow as long and damaging as this bastard of a drought then we are not superman. I sold that last of my wagyu cows a few weeks ago the oldest are now hamburgers somewhere the young I sold to a breeder with grass with an option to buy back the heifer calves later on . We are all well past plan B looking at plans C D E F....sorry to hear of this blokes fate ,many like him yet to come.

Many Waygu people are looking at feedlotting old cows and getting quite good marbling scores.
