[QUOTE="OHJEEZE, post: 3731013, member: 47878"] [USER=25311]@PanhandleGlocker[/USER] First off, I dont know how much of this you know but...... Live weight = weight of the cow as it lives Hanging weight = generally weight of the cow without guts / organs, The head, hide and legs below the knee joint removed. Take home weight = weight you yake home of the cuts you specified. Each farm might price theirs differently. Some might include the butchering costs, some will state "plus processing". The processing costs might include, but could be billed seperate; 1) transportation 2) kill fee 3) cut and wrap Here is a link that might help [URL="https://www.mofga.org/resources/meat-production/meat-processing-terminology/"]Meat Processing Terminology - Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners[/URL] Read up, and ask a lot of questions to compare! Good luck! [/QUOTE]
