Record Calf Prices & What's Next

from LaneCast Ag Podcast Hosted by Lane Nordlund Ag Broadcaster

In this episode, Lane Nordlund sits down with renowned cattle market analyst Don Close of Terrain Ag for an in-depth conversation about the forces driving today's historic cattle market and what producers should be watching as they make decisions for 2027. Record calf prices continue to make headlines across video auctions, while drought conditions remain a limiting factor for herd rebuilding in many regions. Don shares why strong consumer demand for beef has continued to exceed expectations, why producers should remain disciplined despite the excitement surrounding record prices, and how weather—not necessarily economics—may ultimately determine the pace of expansion. #CattleMarket #CalfPrices #BeefIndustry #CowCalf #Ranching #Cattle #BeefDemand #Livestock #Agriculture #LaneCast #TerrainAg #DonClose #CattleMarkets #HerdRebuilding #Drought #Feedlot #WesternAg #AgPodcast #FarmPodcast #RanchLife
