Cash fed cattle prices fell $5 per cwt live and $8-10 dressed from the prior week, the largest weekly decline of the year. Feedyard margins dropped to about $50 per head, while packers still earned over $150 per head.
USDA data showed beef production up 5.2% in January-February and cattle on feed up 9%.
Rising beef and cattle supplies shift leverage to packers and pressure fed cattle prices. Larger placements mean more feed demand is pulled forward, but ample supplies weigh on cattle prices.
