Farm Outlook Supports Fed Cattle Price Outlook into May
Iowa State economist Gene Futrell says cattle on feed and marketings point to held gains and possible strength in May and June. Prices rose about $10 per hundredweight late March to mid April helped by lighter slaughter, steadier beef movement, and stronger retail demand. USDA April 1 data showed a 28 percent rise in cattle in feedlots across 23 states, with regional placements mixed. total fed cattle slaughter should rise about 18 percent in April-June. Slaughter of cows and non fed cattle may drop about 20 percent, partly offsetting higher beef output as demand improves.

Horticulturist Hank Taber notes tomato care ranges from minimal to intensive. Keeping fruit off the ground via trellises, cages, tires, or fences reduces rot and slug damage, while staking requires pruning and careful tieing for early fruit and better air flow.
