I can't swallow that load of BS. No way kill cows brought $2 per lb.cmf1":w6lfeb4b said:The father of the guy that runs one of the local sale barns here told me killer cows brought 2$ lb recently.
"Yikes", was all I could say.
I don't keep up with markets much, but I never got that much for one.

http://amarillo.com/news/2014-02-14/bla ... tle-pricesThere continues to be a "mind-
separation" from reality regarding the high price of cattle. We cattlemen ease around each other, secretly not believing we just sold 13 heifers weighing 480 pounds for $840 each. Or sold a cull bull weighing 1,605 for 74 cents a pound. He brought $1,200. Or sold 600 weight steers for over $1,000 apiece, or bought 20 bred first-calf heifers for $1,680 each.
It is the happiest coffee shop table talk I've heard since the Osama went down! The most common comment, said with a sideways grin and the shake of the head that I hear is, "Man, I can't believe it!"

http://www.cattlenetwork.com/cattle-new ... 81601.htmlU.S. cattle imports in 2013 totaled 2.028 million head, a decline of 11.2 percent from 2012. Imports fell due to slowing shipments from Mexico (-32.6 percent), despite higher shipments from Canada (+27.5 percent).
Beef exports show strong growth, imports moderately higher in 2014
U.S. beef exports rose 5 percent in 2013 to 2.583 billion pounds.
