Books Closed on Cattle Purchases
Washington reports the federal government closed emergency cattle purchases with 1,156,962 head bought for 198,335,322 dollars at an average 13.50 per head. Officials say culling left the industry in a strong position though beef cattlemen remain distant from prosperity. Texas led in sales with 1,926,398 head, while North and South Dakota also moved large totals as feed supplies and prices influence future herd strength.
