I sold some steer calves on Saturday Avg. weight was 545# price was 1.45.50. Although prices are lower than the group I sold before, (last December) I was happy with outcome. :cboy:
Kenny usually Athens is the best around but they are dropping also. Although crossville was making a comeback. I'm planning on selling about 20 five weight steers/heifers in April, hope the market is back up by then.
We have also had some cold days but I think the weather is promising for next week. I didn't know if or how much the government sequester might effect beef prices or for how long.
I'm a small farmer in East Tenn. Just wondering if any person has a prediction on 6&7 weight Steer/Heifer prices for 2013.Wonder if the high prices will hold throughout the summer? Thanks
