2023-02-1405 minThe Angus ConversationChasing Rabbits Wasn’t Fun and Other Wisdom from Randy BlachForty years ago the beef market was “a train wreck,” says Randy Blach, CEO of CattleFax. Beef demand dropped by $250 a head, and hundreds of thousands of cattle producers exited the business. So, how did we get to 2022? Last year, the United States had the highest total beef production in the history of the industry and yet the widest spreads (Choice-Select, Prime-Choice and Certified Angus Beef-Choice). Beef demand is alive and well. Yet, as cow herd numbers decline, these next few years will be “separating years” for seedstock breeders. Time to up your game.
