About this listen
In this week’s IAS Market Talk, Beef Production Specialist Dave Rueber shares an update on cattle markets following a strong run in cash prices. Live cattle climbed from the low $210s to around $230 in just two weeks, driven by heavy negotiated trade and strong demand heading into the holidays.
Dave breaks down what the recent surge means for the weeks ahead, why packer activity may slow during Christmas and New Year’s, and what feeder cattle trends typically look like as the calendar turns to January. He also touches on boxed beef pressure, negotiated trade volumes, and how recent market strength has helped offset potential losses for some producers.
IAS Market Talk delivers timely, practical market insight for Northeast Iowa and Southwest Wisconsin producers — straight from people you know, focused on what matters most to your operation.
