[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 513480, member: 1682"] I will add my 2 cents. I don't know about anyone in the US, but in Canada, I am am noticing the difference high grain prices are making. No longer are straightbred Herefords getting the short end of the stick. I have been to a couple of sales where Hereford steers fetched a 5 to 10 cent premium over everything else, up to 15 cent premium over Char and Simmental cattle. Buyers are saying they don't want to feed any more grain than they have too. Feed efficiency is top priority. British cattle are floating to the top and the Continentals are getting hammered. The market will probably switch around for grasser cattle, but if grain keeps up in price, I think we are going to see a gradual shift away from big Continentals and big carcasses, towards smaller British breed carcasses. :cowboy: [/QUOTE]
