Rex Beresford of Iowa State College says good feeding and buying are needed to boost cattle profits for Iowa farmers in the coming year. He notes feeder cattle shipments up 10 percent by Nov 1, likely larger supplies next year, and predicts more cattle on feed in the Corn Belt by Jan 1. Beef per capita rose from 56 lbs in 1951 to an estimated 68 lbs in 1953, signaling higher consumer prices.
Beresford explains that lower per pound costs make beef competitive with other meats. Profits next year will go to producers with polished facilities and know how to feed cattle quickly and economically. Smart marketing, finishing to the right slaughter grade, and timing sales to seasonal demand are key factors.
