Here are my questions:

Is the fat price all ready posted for Jan 21 and Fed 21? Where is the easiest place to check these contract prices?
I'm trying to figure out approx what the price should be in September so I can know if i can afford to buy more feed and up the #/hd/day as it looks like the drought is going to make it to central kentucky and I don't want these calves to start stagnating due to my plan of growth thru pasture not playing out like I planned. I all ready pre-paid for enough feed to get to September at the rate I'm feeding now. This wouldn't have been much of a big deal in the past because of affordable feed prices, but now........
ask questions if I wasn't clear, any help is appreciated
You can find 'live cattle' (a.k.a. fats) pricing lots of places but mother ship for info and pricing (and options and their pricing as well) is here:
https://www.cmegroup.com/trading/agricultural/livestock.html
there is a bunch of information sheets connected as well.
Was trying to find the page where all the live cattle quotes are listed - - - (finally my search foo connected).
https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/agriculture/livestock/live-cattle.q...
The rest - - - - I'm not your guy - - - - this is where Carlson would have been great but he's not here no mor'.
Good luck
(remember - - - you can't feed your way out of a drought!)
