Is the price of beef going up or down the next coming months?!


Question: Is the price of beef going up or down the next coming months!?
Famers are selling their cattle for meat cause of the high price to feed them!.
Does this mean the short term beef prices will come down, but in the long term the prices will go up from a shortage of beef!?
Should I go out now and stock my freezer with beef, or wait for the prices to go lower!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Like everything else it will probally go up more and more!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I would imagine the retail price of beef will be going up in the next coming months due to the rise in gasoline prices!.

If you have a "sale barn" near you, I suggest you go there, bid on "beef on the hoof", have the beef taken directly to a local slaughter house, butchered, and freeze packed!. Should you not feel comfortable bidding, find someone in your community who is familiar with the process!. Pork is also less expensive when purchased from a livestock auction!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

When is your county fair!? Purchase beef from a 4-H kid!. It won't be treated with steroids and chemicals, you get it cut how you'd like and pay a lower overall price!. If you can't afford it on your own, ask a friend or two to go in on it with you!.
I think commercial beef will go up, just like everything else!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Apparently it will rise 2% in the next year!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
