Cattle Prices Seen Dip Slightly Into Summer
Iowa State extension economist Gene Futrell predicts a small decline in cattle prices for May and June, with a range around 32 to 33 dollars. He notes steady or higher marketings, April 1 feed totals at 12.8 million head, and imports of beef rising seven percent. Slaughter and feed data suggest only a modest rise in supply, while demand should stay firm through summer.
