Now is the time to cull those extra market cows and bulls.
Fall is fast approaching. Last week we had high temperatures near 100 degrees. Lows are forecast for the 30s by midweek as we prepare for seasonal change.
If summer is defined as a growing season, there was no summer for some people. Others had a great summer.
Regardless, summer has departed and fall is making its presence known. This fall is going to be difficult for many producers because high prices have translated into high costs. This has eliminated any margin for error.
