What are yearlings worth?

[bucket]

It is very unfortunate considering what beef costs in stores . It’s an embarrassment to the ag industry that cattle farms are left with nothing after assuming all the risk and labour
Grain farming heading that same way again next year .

Facts....Why bring facts to these discussions furrow?

Cow calf guys are getting phucked badly. And they are the start of the whole thing. Don't have those guys and the rest of the industry falls pretty quick.

Just some rough numbers show I got about four hundred dollars more for my yearlings than I got for the fall calves a year ago, I’ll guess at minimum they will eat three bales each and almost two hundred days on grass, maybe my smaller framed black/red angus are slow growers, this extra hot summer with lots of brown grass wasn’t ideal for putting pounds on.

Neighbors are one of the top end producers in the country and got the highest price last week for a big bunch of Char steers. 921 lbs @ $2.19/lb. All headed to Southern Ontario. Auctioneer said it was the highest price he had heard all fall yet. But they are extremely well managed, fully-vaxxed, dehorned, super uniform and incredibly green framey cattle. Every steer had been given a round of Long Range as well.
