Fed cattle prices have fallen about 7% over two months amid the coronavirus pandemic, with the five-area average live steer price dropping from $124/cwt in January to about $112 in March. LSU AgCenter economist Kurt Guidry said this decline comes at a time when prices normally seasonally rise into spring.
