Cattle feeders IMF plan to halt sales unless prices rise
Denver AP reports cattle feeders across a 10 state area pledge not to sell choice grade steers under 40 cents a pound starting Sunday midnight. About 85 percent of feeders, representing 600000 head, would withhold 1100 to 1200 pound cattle, saying prices 34 to 35 cents a pound cause losses near 200 dollars per head.

Monfort Pack Co. presidents indicate possible voluntary withholding but deny being in any coordinated campaign.
