Same Number Lambs Being Fed This Year
Movement of feeder lambs into feeding areas indicates farmers will feed about the same number of lambs this year as last year. Economists at Town State College foresee somewhat higher fed lamb prices during winter and early spring due to better demand and wool prices. Marketings this fall are not expected to exceed last year despite a 3 percent rise in the 1940 lamb crop. A large share of Texas lambs are held for grass fed yearlings in the spring after shearing, likely higher than usual because wool prices are strong relative to feeder lamb prices and Texas feed conditions are good.
