Hi,

I have a cattle-farmer friend who has a PC.  He is wondering if there are any
low cost cattle herd management programs out there for the PC.  Obviously, 
there probably are, but trying to find them has been a challenge.  Seems like 
alot of crop management programs are advertised in farm magazines, but cattle 
management programs seem to be fewer and far between (and cost $$$--he doesn't
want to spend thousands on one--he has a small herd and also he is sort of 
dubious of their true value).  Does anyone out there in "netland" have any 
suggestions?  Any chance of there being a public domain, bare bones program
somewhere out there?

Thanks in advance,
