Farm Economist Predicts Fed Battle Prices to Stay High
Farm economist Francis Kutish of Iowa State University says fed battle prices may stay above last year, with price patterns similar to 1958 and a narrowing grade spread. He notes larger fed cattle sales offset by smaller cow and nonfed sales, while feeder cattle fall from the spring peak yet remain in demand. Hog prices are expected to drop as market receipts rise, suggesting early marketing of hogs.
