Fat Cattle Prices May Show Strength in Early 1968
Extension economist Gene Futrell of Iowa State forecasts continued beef price support with choice steer prices in Chicago expected to average 26 to 27.50 per hundredweight from January to March. He notes potential strength if supply-demand conditions improve, though fed cattle marketings in the Corn Belt may rise above 1967 while cow marketings stay below, offsetting gains.
