We brought in a new set of feedlot steers… and cattle prices right now are absolutely wild.

In today’s video we:
Process and ear tag 16 new feedlot steers
Talk through our finishing program
Explain preconditioned cattle
Share what’s happening with the cattle market
Discuss why beef prices keep increasing
Show what direct-to-consumer beef really looks like

These steers averaged 846 lbs and will eventually become freezer beef ready around November and December.

And with cattle prices at all-time highs, the risk level for producers has changed BIG time.

If you’ve ever wondered:
why beef costs more,
how feedlot cattle are processed,
how direct-to-consumer beef works,
or what it actually costs to raise freezer beef…
this video explains a lot of it.
