Western livestock market and beef cattle outlook
The hog market shows fluctuations but remains satisfactory for producers with an 11 to 12 cent Los Angeles market as a profitable outlet. Western cattlemen see demand for registered beef bulls rising, while cattle feeders face lower prices than last year. Cotton crop prospects boost cottonseed cake, aiding stock fattening. Hides stay a key cost factor with tariff debates amid substitutes affecting leather demand.
