Market experts describe 2017 as a year of improved cattle prices and expect 2018 to be better. USDA data show 1.8 million head of cattle imported in 2017 with 1.9 million expected in 2018, and exports of about 165,000 head in 2017 with roughly 175,000 expected in 2018.
Rising feeder cattle imports from Canada and Mexico add to U.S. supply, which can offset demand-driven price gains in feeder and live cattle.
