The USDA’s Agricultural Marketing Service has announced it will begin publishing two new cattle market reports to provide more transparency in cattle pricing.
Tanner Beymer is director of government affairs & market regulatory policy, for the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association. “The publication of these two new reports will shed a little light on the formula bucket and help producers better compare the arrangements they have negotiated between themselves and their buyers and hopefully have some more information to make more informed marketing decisions of their own,” he says.
