[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 853885, member: 1715"] Global demand is projected to be up a little in 2012. Options indicate about a 25% chance of a significant corn price drop in 2012. I am seeing some empty pastures even though hay is cheap here. Checked on a couple - - one is now being saved for the deer and the other is being saved for a relative who may need it and ... Bottom line is there are fewer cows in this country and we have rain. Local plant in killing cows trucked up from Texas. Harlan' last column in Beef mag concluded that ethonal did not effect cow/calf cost trends but it did reduce the price buyers could pay for feeders. I think a betting man would buy some LRP, and then take yearling (heifers) to grass next spring. And so I get stuck with 75% bull calves this spring... :( But no one REALLY knows. [/QUOTE]
