With the release of the Cattle on Feed report and Cattle Inventory Reporton Friday, data shows the nation’s cattle herd is still not expanding and feedlot placements continue to decline.
The exciting news for cattle producers is that based on the reports, Don Close, Terrain senior animal protein analyst, predicts cattle producers have not seen the highest cattle prices, yet.
“While I don’t think we’ve seen the high water mark of this market, I do not think we’ll continue to see prices escalate at the rate we have for the year to date,” he says.
