Prices fall in fat cattle as markets shift to cheaper grades
The March issue of the Agricultural Economic Facets foresees a continued drop in fat cattle prices with better grades likely to fall to lower levels as supplies rise. Common and medium steers hold firmer, while slaughter of cows is expected to drop, boosting cheaper cuts. Demand from rising business activity may lift cattle prices, and a new farm act offers soil fertility, purchasing power, food security, and river harbor protections.
