| If your feeding, cattle, backgrounding, or running stockers on wheat pasture or grass, go to the auction and stand up and say numbers don't matter, we are producing more beef with less cows, cattle shouldn't be this high. Bet it makes no difference in prices. Ten year old bulls are bringing more then fed cattle on occcasion, because it is a true competitive market, unlike the manipulated fed cattle market. Two hundred pound bull calves brought $875 locally last week. If you are in most segments of the cattle industry numbers matter. Guys that often bought old bred cows to run for the season are having to bid at least 50% more because the packer buyers will run them up that much. Beef cow numbers matter when they become this short. | |
