Cattle Producers of Louisiana
The year 2023 is coming to a close and what a year it has been! Late freeze, heavy rains early, wild fires and drought just to name a few weather calamities, not to mention wars and political upheaval. The bottom line, Louisiana cow/calf producers realized $70.00 cwt. to $80.00 cwt. price increase from 2022 for their calves they marketed in 2023.
