CME cattle futures fell to multiyear lows on Tuesday, with some live and feeder cattle contracts hitting daily trading limits for a second straight day. The selloff followed a fire at Tyson Foods' Finney County beef plant in Kansas, which was expected to stay down indefinitely.
The plant reportedly processed about 6,000 head of cattle per day.
Losing that slaughter capacity leaves fed cattle with fewer packing options, which pressures cash and futures prices while logistics adjust. Uncertainty about how long the plant stays closed keeps downward pressure on the complex.
