Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Agricultural Situation, Vol. 62: The Crop Reporters Magazine; October 1978
After peaking during the first half of 1975, the number of cattle in the United States has continued to drop off steadily. How much longer and how far the cattle herd will shrink remains to be seen.
One thing's for sure. Once herd rebuilding gets underway, beef supplies will dwindle as cattlemen send fewer animals to market.
By knowing roughly how many head will be going to slaughter in coming months, cattlemen can time their marketings to get the best possible price for their finished ani mals.
For those operators who want to stay on top of the market and make their own forecasts of upcoming slaughter supplies, three reports issued by the Crop Reporting Board are required reading.
