Beef cattle and livestock economic outlook! FCCA hosted an evening with Kenny Burdine
It’s no secret going into 2025 prices of all classes of beef cattle are at record highs! Can it continue? How long will the consumer continue to support these price levels? Is it too late to consider expansion?
Last week the Fairfield county Cattlemen hosted University of Kentucky Extension livestock economist Dr. Kenny Burdine in the Ag Center as he addressed those questions and more during the first session of the 2025 Ohio Virtual Beef School. In case you missed it or just want to review it, find Dr. Burdine’s presentation embedded below:
