Breeders Needed Amid Herd Scarcity Crisis
Chicago Drovers' Journal notes four years of low cattle prices drove breeders to liquidate breeding stock through castration and spaying. As prices recover, few breeders remain with large herds, though pure-bred breeding cattle have surged at least 150 percent in the past two years across Shorthorn Herefords Angus and Galloways.

Shortage in Beef Cattle Supply Reduces Steers per Capita
From a federal return the number of beef cattle in the United States fell from 27,000,000 to 28,000,000 head since 1890, a drop of 9,000,000 animals while the population rose about 14,000,000. The ratio dropped from 589 to 1,000 to 265 to 1,000, meat demand rose, prices for corn and other goods climbed, and farmers benefit from higher livestock prices. Beef could ease if cattle herds expand to boost beef stock.
