Texas Cattlemen Jubilant Over Prospects
Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers leaders met in Amarillo amid optimistic notes for fall business. They said livestock movements to grasslands in Oklahoma and Kansas rose, but many stockers will return to ranges, not beef channels, signaling no beef surplus. Understocked Texas ranches and renewed stockings point to a firmer fall market and industry improvement. Jay Taylor noted gains reflect stocker movements from drought areas, not beef supply increases. He headed to Chicago for a National Livestock and Meat Board meeting.
