Beef Cattle Prices Rise on Stronger Steak Demand
Beef cattle this spring have sold the highest for the season since 1920 as demand for steak grows. Prices across classes rose 12 to 27 percent from last year and the five year average, with better fed steers at unusual highs due to smaller receipts and weight premiums. Slaughter under federal inspection fell 3 percent in the first four months, while live costs to slaughterers rose 8 percent. The bureau notes higher slaughter, rising per capita beef consumption, and a favorable outlook amid potential downward supplies.
