Cattle outlook mixed as drought tightens feed and prices
The year brought profits for many cattlemen though prices did not match the prior year. Feeder cattle sold lower, margins were thin or losses common, but fall feeder prices still yielded satisfactory returns for range producers. Projections for early 1930 hint at profitable prices if bought well, aided by drought reducing feed and fat cattle supplies. The industry faces wider economic factors, rainfall dependence, and consumer demand, with loan funds available for conservative credit.
Rabbit farming grows as a money making enterprise
The Sears Roe Buck Apicultural Foundation notes rabbit raising as a lucrative venture due to rising fur demand. Annual U S rabbit skin use reaches about 190 million, with 8 percent imported. Prolific does yield 4 to 25 kits yearly, and various breeds such as Chinchilla and New Zealand White predominate.
