Profit Prospects Poor for Heavy Steers Says Uhrig
Iowa State University economist William Uhrig reports heavy steers show record slaughter numbers in 1963 as prices drop for overfinished cattle. He notes higher slaughter weights, rising prime and choice steer marketing, and costs of gain above 30 to 40 dollars per hundredweight limit profitability unless price gains or better grades occur. Feeders are advised to sell finished cattle or switch to lighter stock to avoid losses.
