March update
Livestock thrives while commodity markets struggle amid volatility.
Producer sentiment remains a mixed bag as tariffs have heightened volatility across all commodity markets. Livestock and dairy producers are enjoying an optimistic outlook, with favorable prices and low feed costs. However, most commodities are contending with persistent low prices and are unlikely to see significant price or profitability improvement in 2025. The current market uncertainty is placing significant pressure on producers as they weigh their options and planting decisions.
