The talking heads agree that the packers are making good profits. Great for them.
The talking heads agree that the US cow herd expansion has slowed and stopped. Good for us.
But the talking heads do not agree on when the cow herd will go down enough to move prices. I see small diary pastures being re stocked with beef cows, so our local feeder production is actually going up regardless of prices.
Do you see empty or plowed up pastures in your area, or are other beef producers just picking up aditional acres ?
