Canadian livestock numbers dip as herd sizes shrink nationwide
Canadian cattle inventories fell to the lowest level since 1989 with 11.1 million cattle and calves on farms as of Jan 1 2024, down 2.1 percent from 2023. Hog and sheep stocks also declined while dairy and crop plans for 2024 show shifts in planting, with wheat and canola acreage expected to rise or fall regionally. Manitoba reports declines in cattle totals and area plans reflect broader provincial trends.
