We were doing some quick calculations off the top of our heads yesterday and realized that we spent almost $4000 this year on my parents farm. Here was our fast breakdown:
$1300 Brown Swiss Cow
$800 Truckload of Hay (My Dad had a bad year weather-wise and didn't make as much as usual.)
$600 Milking Shorthorn Cow
$500 Stall Matting
$400 Equipment (Water bowl replacements, collars, etc)
$200 Feed
That's $3800 right off the top of our heads.
Amazing where your money goes...

I have an uncle that owns cows , it can be very time consuming and expensive at times. But I think in the long run it is worth the investment.

WOW that much for a COW!
The cost really depends on the demand for cows. Yes, cow raising is a good investment.

I agree with moneymonk. Time consuming, but worth it in the end.
