Thoughts for 2011 and Beyond • Continued economic recovery is a major key for livestock prices • Meat demand is recovering • Meat supplies tightened up with smaller herds/flocks • Feed costs have continued to march higher • The combination implies livestock expansion will take awhile • Poultry in 2010, Hogs maybe in 2012, and Cattle after that
