# FEEDSTUFFS MEAT PRICE OUTLOOK: July 03, 2018

> Feedstuffs' weekly meat outlook says beef carcass weights typically rise through the fall, and supplies of market-ready cattle are expected to thin but stay adequate for packers. On the pork side, the sow harvest over the next 45 days is expected to be the tightest of the remainder of the year.
