BRG said:Today in Mobridge, SD a customer (Bickle Ranch) sold their open Red Angus heifer calves. We were contending bidders but did not get them. He sold a load weighing 546lbs and they left the ring at $1.68 or $917 a heifer. Congradulations Jack!!!
Shorthornguy said:Congradulations on the sales. Beef sales will cool down a little and then go back up. The future looks good. The US population is now 300,000,000
In 12 more years it is expected to be 400,000,000. That is a growth rate over 8% a year. The nations beef herd is only growing at a rate of 1.65%
a year. Higher demand means higher prices .If I was young again I would
go a million dollars in debt and owe my sole to tyhe company store. lol![]()
