Looks like a good day to be long feeders and live cattle 😎

First set of video cattle I’ve ever bought and will be the first set of cattle I finish in SW Kansas. Projected to go out end of April. With April futures close to $2.00 they might actually work.

My first year as Commodity Manager and we were finally able to fill both bunkers and cover one. A combination of a prolonged harvest and better than expected yields helped a lot. Big thanks goes out to our team and the farmers and elevators that haul us corn. #ND #ethanol #corn

I didn’t think Cattle were worth anything.

2 loads of weaned steer calves at Hub City today.

Aberdeen Livestock

Brought the 2 backyard freezer beef to the locker this morning. Each hung a 1040 and 1050 carcass and gained 4-4.25/day. Should start bucket feeding everything. Picture was from this summer

I think the “April” fats might be ahead of schedule.

300 black steers 693# average $286.00 Aberdeen Livestock 02/12/24. 🔥

Will have 200 of these steers at Mitchell livestock next Thursday the 22nd. Front end blacks will weigh around 875 and coloreds be around 825. All purchased out of Phillip and Ft Pierre. Video was taken about a month ago.

Pen wasn’t empty long.

First load of the heifers in ND go Monday. Should weigh up good. Too bad they aren’t worth anything.

200 of these heifers will sell June 13th at Mitchell livestock BBQ sale. Should weigh 800-900.

“LRP seems expensive this year March feeders can’t go much above $325.” Hand up I was wrong. Looks like I’ll be wiring out more margin money tomorrow.
