The fat cattle market has maintained stable prices and demand, but potential changes are on the horizon. Alejandro Zambrano of Zambrano y Cía highlighted that despite a recent slowdown in business activity, demand remains robust across most cattle categories. Steer prices are currently between US$3.80 and US$3.90, while cow prices range from US$3.65 to US$3.75. The market benefits from free-range cattle and a dynamic domestic interest in heifers and well-finished light steers. Zambrano anticipates stable supply through early August, though factors like plant activity and forage conditions will play a role. Improved forage and longer days may encourage producers to retain livestock for replacement or weight gain.
