No Holstein this week?

I too noticed that Holsteins were missing on the report and wondered as well.

3020  -  Look  on   your  ''smart phone '' for  an  app. '' ibotta ''  that  has information on  beef  sales according  to  an  article  on  KRVN  radio ---

It  seems to be more of a retail site explaining retail price being down  10% from 2014 highs ---

Thank you 289.....but I don't have a smart phone. My son does. I will get him to download.

I'm thinkin...I do that sometimes.....dangerous I know......anyway, I'm think Tama has had such a disastrous Holstein market the last few weeks anyone with Holstein went some where else.

r3020 - I  wonder why the retail price stays abnormally high and using gadget and gimmics to deflect reality & loosing more market share to swine and flock ?

I wish I had an answer, but I don't. We also have hogs. I can tell you there is more money in the Holstein calves now than there is in the hogs. My brothers hauled some in today. I think he said if you figure it back to live weight it was in that $38-39 dollar range. No future in that.
