Smallest Early Lamb Crop Reported in Over Two Decades
The Agriculture Department notes a six year decline in early spring lamb crops across principal states with a 7 percent drop this year. Breeding ewes are at a possible low since 1867, lambs per hundred ewes remain above average, and marketings before July 1 are expected to be lower than last year as lamb development lags.

Livestock Market Steady Amid Hog and Lamb Shortage
The Producers Live Stock Commission Association says hogs and lambs face tight supplies but price drops should stay within reason. Relief from hog shortages isn’t expected until fall, with only modest spring to early summer increases in marketings. Retail resistance has pressured prices, though stockmen remain financially solid with ample feed.
