Cattle Producers Meet with New Ag Minister

Saskatoon Homepage.ca - Its All About Your Community. - New Sask Ag Minister Meets with Livestock Groups on Friday

I've been watching the cattle industry news, because things are so tough there. I hope this article comes to something. The post is about the New Sask. Ag Minister meeting with cattlemen. I'm a little cynical and I'm wishing this isn't a bit of political posturing. It's pretty scary for cattlemen right now. I've talked to several over the last couple of months and I've not heard many good news stories. After the BSE hit there still were a few bright spots. Somebody sold before it hit or even increased there stock because they felt good times were ahead, but nothing good yet out of this downturn. A high dollar, high feed prices and a increasing US herd all spell trouble. I know the industry will survive, but in what form at the other end of this I don't know yet
