With the torrid cattle markets now a fact of life for cattle producers, keeping up with the trends that affect your bottom line is more important than ever. Check out BEEF’s new audio reports on trends in the feeder cattle and slaughter cow markets, featuring Ed Czerwien, USDA Market News reporter in Amarillo, Texas.

Ed’s weekly market wrap-up is posted on beefmagazine.com every Thursday afternoon. It analyzes feeder cattle prices from auction markets in Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, New Mexico, Missouri and Colorado; and the slaughter cow analysis uses auction market reports from those same states as well as Pennsylvania.

While you’re at it, be sure to check out Steve Kay’s weekly market synopsis and Ed’s weekly look at trends in the boxed beef trade, also posted every Thursday on beefmagazine.com.
