This is your Daily Live Cattle Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

Hello and welcome to the Daily Live Cattle Price Tracker. I’m Vanessa Clark coming to you on Wednesday, October twenty-ninth, twenty twenty-five. If you’re tuning in for the latest on live cattle trading prices and market updates, you are in the right place. Every weekday, I break down the most recent numbers, market moves, and key news that every cattle producer, buyer, and livestock enthusiast needs to know. So grab your coffee and let’s get started.

Let’s jump straight into today’s core update. Live cattle prices climbed to two hundred thirty-one dollars and eleven cents per hundredweight today, which is up one point five eight percent over yesterday. According to Trading Economics, even though prices dipped about point three percent over the last month, they’re still up nearly twenty-three percent from where we were a year ago. That’s a strong vantage for beef producers, especially as we approach the end of the quarter, with forecasts predicting live cattle may continue rising, possibly hitting two hundred thirty-five dollars and ninety-eight cents by year’s end.

Now, what’s fueling this movement? Well, the past couple of weeks have been nothing short of volatile. Futures have dropped sharply this month, with limit-down days fueled by discussions out of Washington. President Trump’s recent announcement about plans to lower beef prices triggered the turbulence, mainly by proposing a huge increase in Argentina beef imports. The idea is to quadruple permitted shipments into the U.S. This potential shake-up has plenty of folks on edge because increased imports could pressure domestic prices.

Beyond the headlines, let’s look at the cash market. Reports show some northern cattle sold for two hundred thirty dollars this week, about eight dollars lower than last week’s average. Dressed weights also eased off a bit. High volumes changed hands on Monday, signaling both sellers and buyers are strategizing amid current uncertainty. Meanwhile, margins for beef plants have improved—lower fed prices and rising box beef prices have put processors solidly back in the black, encouraging higher slaughter volumes and gradually eating into the tight fed cattle supply.

Speaking of supply, the American cattle herd is showing signs of expansion, despite some dry conditions in southern plains. The drought monitor is leaning positive for growth, and there’s talk that rebuilding is picking up speed. That’s something to watch because it could shift market dynamics faster than expected.

If you’re marketing cattle, risk management has become especially critical these days. With the border still closed to live cattle imports from Mexico, and new policy twists popping up every week, staying informed is your best weapon. Today’s actionable tip: keep close tabs on futures contracts and look for opportunities when market overreactions occur. Volatility brings risk, but also opportunity to lock in favorable prices if you act strategically.

Looking ahead, all eyes are on policy decisions about beef imports and any updates on reopening the border for live cattle. If you’re following feeder cattle, prices for steers and heifers are generally lower, with more softness expected, but box beef prices are rising—choice cutouts are up to about three hundred seventy-nine dollars.

That wraps up your midweek snapshot for the live cattle market. Thanks for joining me, Vanessa Clark, on the Daily Live Cattle Price Tracker.
