A NOTE FROM RPI PROMOTIONS

Welcome to 2019! What a year this could be!

We have witnessed a cattle market that sure has room to move toward a higher level. There were bred cattle sold this fall, that we would have to say on the average, were tagged very reasonable.

There seems to be opportunity at about every level of the cattle prices.

The saying “right place at the right time,” could be the phrase that identifies whether or not there is prosperity in the livestock industry this year. Those who sold the right type of cattle at the right time, might be in a more comfortable position to start the new year off.

In our area the winter feed bill has not been a large ticket item like it was last year. Winter grazing on the prairie has eased some pressure on many cattlemen. We didn’t experience a white Christmas this year. . . . . it came a day later!

Enough hay was put up in most areas to get through the winter. Some three and four cuttings of dry land alfalfa was set into the hay yards a couple of hours from our community. That same area has been hit pretty hard with moisture in both rain and snow this December. We see it first hand when we move in to take pictures of bulls for promotion of their early 2019 sales. Mud and livestock pictures don’t mix well.

Now that we are in the new year of 2019, we must plan for the best of times and the planning must include purchasing the best genetics you can afford. In times of uncertainty, a lean towards the positive will advance you further if we do happen to turn the corner into a higher market. Don’t take the short cut!

As you look through the pages of our January Cattlemen’s Invite, you will find programs that will move you forward in both the commercial and registered cattle market. I invite you to study the offering within these programs. There is a variety of genetics in these sales and the list of both calving ease bulls and performance bulls is pretty long.

Give the producers a call and visit with them about what genetics might fit your program. Many producers have a few new sires this year and the combination of new outcross genetics, with their proven cow families might explode the quality of the beef that is being raised in our coverage area.

We will be traveling the country visiting with many seedstock producers, and if you’re looking for a certain type and kind, give us a call.

We would be glad to help.

Thanks again for your support, trust and friendship.
