Cattle Outlook Signals Higher Prices Ahead
The January 1 1977 cattle on farms tally shows 122.9 million head, a 4 percent drop from 1976 and 9 percent from 1975, with surprisingly large over 500 pound steers and heifers. Futrell cites ongoing liquidation as easing beef production and lifting long term price prospects, while calf crop falls 6 percent from 1975 yet remains above July 1976 USDA estimates.

Stress Test Guidance For Carryover Soybean Seed
Harold Heykes notes farmers must stress test all carryover soybean seed. ISU Seed Lab head L E Everson explains high germination can hide deterioration. stress results above 80 percent predict good stands under favorable conditions, 60 to 79 percent are questionable, and below 60 percent avoid planting. New crop seed does not require stress testing.

Beef cow herd decline linked to slaughter outlook
The article notes beef production will drop as cow slaughter remains large. Slaughter is seen down about fifteen percent from 1976, yet still significant enough to shrink the cow herd. If dry conditions persist in key beef areas, cow and non-fed steer and heifer slaughter could exceed expectations, potentially limiting price gains in the year's latter half. Futrell comments on these projections.
