Iowa Farm Outlook Feeder cattle prices seen higher this fall

Gene Futrell of Iowa State University says feeder cattle prices may average $2 to $3 a hundredweight higher this fall than 1969. Early October prices for feeder yearlings and calves run $3 to $4 above last year but $2 to $3 below June levels amid strong demand, feeding returns, and expanded feedlot capacity. He notes calf supplies could rise slightly. 1969 beef calf crop up 2.5 percent, hay remains ample, and heifer holdbacks should match last year. For 1970 the outlook weakens. fed cattle prices likely lower than 1969, but second half demand could lift prices back toward 1969 levels if demand stays firm.
