Washington based Agriculture Department economist Richard J. Crom said cattle feeders may see a price uptick later this month though gains likely stay modest. He noted live cattle around 40 dollars per hundredweight but warned many feeders are still losing money once all costs are counted, with April prices turning sour after spring gains.
