The Tyson Foods Finney County beef plant in Holcomb, Kansas, was partly destroyed by fire on August 10, and cattle futures fell limit down on the Monday after. Analysts estimated the lost slaughter capacity at roughly 30,000 head per week, about 6% of U.S. fed cattle packing capacity.
The plant accounted for about 23.5% of Kansas fed cattle packing capacity.
The loss of weekly slaughter capacity disrupts both fed cattle and boxed beef markets, adding logistics costs for rerouting cattle and beef. Those costs and the shortfall in packing capacity weigh on live cattle and feeder cattle prices.
