Continued pressure on margins
Alfredo DiCostanzo, Nebraska Beef Systems Extension Educator

We recently wrapped up the first quarter of 2024. Yet, cattle markets continue to be dominated by margin-influencing factors that are beyond the reach of cattle producers: weather, weekly cattle harvest, beef imports, and, recently, confirmation that highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) was detected in dairy herds in Texas, Kansas, Idaho, and Michigan. (As a result, the Nebraska Department of Agriculture issued an importation order effective immediately prohibiting all breeding female dairy cattle from entering the state of Nebraska without a Permit issued by the Department (ImportOrder.pdf (nebraska.gov)). As of April 1, there have been no reported detections of HPAI in Nebraska dairy cattle or other livestock (NDA issues restrictions provides update on HPAI in livestock PR.pdf (nebraska.gov)).

These factors have played a moderating effect on fed cattle prices. Weekly negotiated cash price for cattle sold in Nebraska gained $18/cwt between January 1 and March 25, 2024. News of HPAI diagnosis in dairy herds in other states occurred since March 25. Fed cattle prices traded laterally between March 25 and April 1.

Does this mean that of all the factors mentioned, news of HPAI diagnosis in dairy herds in other states had the most influential effect on cattle price? This is quite possible and not surprising; yet time (and subsequent HPAI news or lack thereof) will tell.

How do we reconcile this with other prevailing factors in the industry?

In a previous column (week of December 31), I mentioned that corn grain prices were expected to trade between $4.80 and $5.00/bu between March and September. Now, it looks like corn grain futures are trading between $4.33 and $4.56/bu.

The weekly Choice-Select spread is following seasonal patterns and is below $10/cwt while the Choice cutout is trading near

$300/cwt. This observation and the fact that the Weekly Economic Index is not declining support consumer confidence and a desire to purchase beef.

One might say that feeding costs should be moderating some while consumers continue to enjoy American grown and finished beef, which spells good news in the short term. Concurrently, the fact that fed cattle prices rose steadily since the beginning of the year demonstrates that despite slowed harvest speed, the market demanded more beef, and it had to be delivered.

This good news was moderated by the effect of tight cattle supply on feeder prices. Yearling cattle sales are averaging between $230 and $270/cwt; filling a pen of 850-lb steers would cost $2,200 a head. Even at a finishing weight of 1,650 lb and $190/cwt sale price, the gross margin is $935/head for a break even cost of gain of $116/cwt. Nearly $14/cwt of that is needed to cover interest, which leaves $102/cwt for feed, facilities, equipment, veterinary, labor and freight costs. Although there is room for a positive margin, this determination relied on $190/cwt fed cattle price and $4.50/bu corn. Price movements in the wrong direction would narrow profit margins even more.

As we move to the second and third quarters of the year, weather is the factor that has a chance to pressure margins further. Although drought conditions may be improving, the precipitation outlook is less than normal, and the temperature outlook is for normal to above normal temperatures.

Perhaps before too long, it is time to start thinking of deploying hot weather prevention strategies. Narrow margins tend to make us more responsive.



Linster hired as Center for Rural Affairs policy director

Jillian Linster of Pender, Nebraska, was recently named policy director with the Center for Rural Affairs.

Linster joined the Center in May 2023 as the assistant policy director and served as interim policy director before her recent appointment. The Center’s policy work spans the nation and is focused in Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, and Minnesota.

“After stepping into the interim role last fall, Jillian quickly demonstrated the skills and capacities necessary to lead the Center’s policy program in the long term,” said Brian Depew, Center executive director. “I look forward to seeing Jillian’s leadership as our staff continue to develop, coordinate, and execute strategies that advance the Center’s state and federal policy objectives.”

Before joining the Center, Linster taught at the University of South Dakota, where she worked with students who often wrote impassioned essays about the climate crisis, equality, conservation, health care access, and food systems.

Linster said the students' insistence on the need for change inspired her to want to do more about the crucial dilemmas facing current and future generations, which led her to the Center.  

“Serving as policy director gives me the opportunity to draw on my diverse experiences to advance our goals of values, worth, and action while supporting a group of exceptional people in their tireless dedication to strong rural communities,” she said. “I enjoy working with my colleagues to advance state and federal policies that improve the lives of rural residents and open new possibilities for our local communities.”

Linster is based in the Center’s Lyons, Nebraska office; reach her at 402.687.2100, ext. 1018, or jillianl@cfra.org.



Tallgrass, Bold Alliance, and Key Agricultural and First Responder Organizations Announce a Community Benefits Agreement

Tallgrass, Bold Alliance, and multiple organizations across Nebraska announced a first-of-its-kind Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) associated with the Tallgrass Trailblazer carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration project.

The agreement between Tallgrass and Bold Alliance received endorsements from 11 statewide organizations, including Renewable Fuels Nebraska, the Nebraska State Volunteer Firefighters Association, the Nebraska Farm Bureau, the Nebraska Corn Growers Association, the Nebraska Cattleman, the Nebraska Farmers Union, the Nebraska Soybean Association, the Nebraska Sorghum Producers Association, the Nebraska State Dairy Association, the Nebraska Pork Producers Association and We Support AG.

This landmark agreement sets a new precedent for pipeline infrastructure by establishing a series of community initiatives as well as creating rigorous landowner rights protections throughout the pipeline’s life cycle, from early project development through easement negotiations, operations, and decommissioning.

Other near and long-term benefits provisioned by the CBA include:
A $500,000 funding commitment to nonprofits in the counties associated with the project.

A $400,000 funding commitment to equip first responders throughout the development of the project, as well as ongoing annual funding to support replenishing and replacing essential equipment once the project is operational.

There is a $200,000 funding commitment to train first responders as the project comes online, as well as an annual obligation, once operational, to provide public safety notifications to the families who live along the pipeline right of way.

A requirement, at the time of decommissioning, that the easements are returned to landowners who may elect to have the pipeline abandoned in place or removed from their property.

The CBA additionally establishes a 10-year, two-part, shared-value program. By achieving operations on schedule, this program establishes provisions for landowners to receive an annual royalty payment and for a community foundation to receive an annual endowment — based on the total amount of CO2 the project sequesters. The annual royalty payment program for landowners applies not only to future easement negotiations, but also to landowners who have already signed easements for the CO2 pipeline. “Bold believes that those who live in our rural towns and whose land is needed to develop American energy should receive direct financial and community benefits,” said Jane Kleeb, founder of Bold Alliance. “Tallgrass’s existing pipeline was initially built for natural gas delivery, and the conversion they are undertaking to transport carbon dioxide highlights the need for additional community benefits which are met under this agreement,” Kleeb continued. “Tallgrass is the first pipeline company we have encountered that has been willing to engage proactively, acknowledge the need for the landowner benefits that Bold fights to achieve, and genuinely commit itself to addressing those benefits by written agreement. The commitments between Bold and Tallgrass must set a standard for future energy infrastructure developers and for future regulatory reform that ensures stronger community and landowner benefits are enshrined in our state and federal laws.”



Nebraska Farmers Union Supports Historic Community Benefits Agreement

The Nebraska Farmers Union (NeFU) Board of Directors announced they voted to support an historic “Community Benefits Agreement” between Bold Nebraska and Trailblazer CO2 Pipeline, LLC. NeFU’s grassroots driven state policy on pipelines focuses on the fair and transparent treatment of landowners, first responders, and rural communities by pipeline companies, while not taking a position on carbon pipelines. The signing of the Community Benefits Agreement does not change NeFU’s neutral position on carbon pipelines.

“NeFU’s Board of Directors applauds the groundbreaking efforts of both Bold Nebraska and Trailblazer CO2 Pipeline for coming to the table, negotiating in good faith, and developing an innovative approach that provides substantial new benefits to landowners, first responders, and communities impacted by the pipeline,” said NeFU President John Hansen. “Hopefully, this Community Benefits Agreement will substantially raise the bar for all carbon pipeline companies.”

NeFU believes the Nebraska Legislature and the Public Service Commission have both failed to properly address the new additional health risks posed by carbon pipelines.  “Carbon pipelines are new, and pose new health risks. Given the failure of the Public Service Commission and the Legislature to protect landowners, first responders, and rural communities, the historic Community Benefits Agreement is a timely step forward in a positive direction in all three areas,” said NeFU Vice President Vern Jantzen.

Hansen and Jantzen noted the NeFU board appreciated Trailblazer’s willingness to accept the management responsibilities if there is a leak or incident.

Hansen said, “This Community Benefits Agreement provides a more clear and transparent process for the use of eminent domain than currently exists. Hopefully, this process should reduce the threat of the use of eminent domain authority as a way to leverage landowners into signing easements, and also reduce the overall use of eminent domain. The more flexible the pipeline company is with the route of the pipeline, the less need there will be for eminent domain.”

Jantzen said, “Thanks to this Community Benefits Agreement, there will be substantial amounts of additional financial support for the purchase of first responder equipment and training, community foundations, and income for landowners. The process for the use of eminent domain is improved. Bold Nebraska and Trailblazer Pipeline deserve credit for raising the bar for carbon pipelines, and bringing new additional financial resources to the table. This Community Benefits Agreement represents a substantial and positive step forward in the right direction.”



CAP Webinar: Nebraska and U.S. Farm Income Update and Outlook — Spring 2024
Apr 18, 2024 12:00 PM
Brad Lubben, Associate Professor and Extension Policy Specialist, University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Scott Brown, Associate Professor and Interim Director of the Rural and Farm Finance Policy Analysis Center, University of Missouri

Nebraska’s net farm income is expected to fall to $6 billion in 2024 and average $6.3 billion across the next decade. This comes after Nebraska farm income rebounded in 2023 compared to 2022, coming in at a projected $7.2 billion. Crop production recovered but prices fell in 2023 and appear to be trending toward longer-run averages. Livestock receipts were up on the strength of the beef prices but may be topping out as cattle inventory begins to rebuild and prices soften. Production expenses have grown substantially to record levels in 2023 and look to remain relatively high in the coming years.

Join Nebraska Extension for an analysis of the latest farm income situation and the the outlook for 2024, which comes with expectations of lower crop prices and reduced livestock receipts as cattle marketings bottom out, all while production expenses remain sticky just a little below the record levels of 2023.

Presented by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Center for Agricultural Profitability and the University of Missouri’s Rural and Farm Finance Center. Register for the webinar here: https://cap.unl.edu/webinars.  



Naig Celebrates Signing of Foreign Ownership of Farmland Legislation

Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Mike Naig released the following statement today after Gov. Kim Reynolds signed Senate File 2204, legislation strengthening Iowa’s Foreign Ownership of Farmland law:

“Keeping Iowa’s precious and productive farmland in the hands of Americans is an issue I’ve heard about continually as I have traveled our state and I share Iowans’ deep passion for protecting this valuable resource. With the additional enforcement, deterrence and disclosure tools and requirements that are incorporated through this legislation, Iowa’s prohibition on the foreign ownership of farmland will continue to be a model for other states. I appreciate the close working relationship with Gov. Reynolds, Attorney General Bird, Secretary of State Pate, and key members of the House and Senate as we worked together to strengthen and modernize this landmark law.”



Iowa State University’s Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory dedicates first phase of new facility

Iowa State University celebrated a significant milestone in the advancement of the College of Veterinary Medicine’s long-standing commitment to providing state-of-the-art diagnostic services in support of Iowa’s $32.5 billion animal agriculture industry. On April 4, the university marked the dedication of the first phase of the new Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory (VDL) and the start of the second phase of the building’s construction project.

“This new facility will further strengthen the VDL as a national leader in advancing animal health, food safety and public health,” said Iowa State University President Wendy Wintersteen. “The VDL’s world-class expertise and innovative solutions provide essential support for our livestock and poultry producers and benefit all Iowans. We are deeply grateful for the extraordinary investments made by the state, our industry and commodity partners and donors who made this new facility possible.”

Iowa State’s VDL has been a national leader in protecting animal and human health since it was established in 1947. The facility has the largest food animal caseload in the United States while serving the most advanced livestock and poultry producers in the world. The facility annually sees more than 120,000 cases and conducts 1.6 million tests.

“In addition to serving Iowa’s animal agriculture and helping protect the global food supply through world-class diagnostic services, the VDL is also a hub of innovation,” said Dr. Dan Grooms, Dr. Stephen G. Juelsgaard Dean of Veterinary Medicine at the Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine. “What separates Iowa State’s VDL from most others is our advancement around animal diagnostic medicine, whether it is developing a new diagnostic test or discovering a novel pathogen.”

Construction started on the first phase in March 2021. The new facility became operational last month when client services, receiving/accessioning, sample processing, pathology, histopathology, bacteriology and other sections moved into the new building.  Construction of  Phase 2 is scheduled to begin this spring with a 2026 completion date anticipated. The remaining VDL sections will continue to operate in Patterson Hall until Phase 2 construction is completed and they move to the new facility. The $141.5 million project was made possible through funding from the State of Iowa, federal resources, donors and Iowa State University.

NASS discontinues select 2024 data collection programs and reports

The USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is canceling the July Cattle report and discontinuing the Cotton Objective Yield Survey, as well as all County Estimates for Crops and Livestock beginning with the 2024 production year. The decision to discontinue these surveys and reports was not made lightly, but was necessary, given appropriated budget levels.

NASS has and will continue to review its estimating programs using criteria focused on the needs of its mission and customers to prioritize budget decisions. Information about all NASS surveys and reports is available online at www.nass.usda.gov.  



NCBA Urges USDA to Reverse Decision to End Reporting of Critical Cattle Industry Data

Today, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) criticized the U.S. Department of Agriculture National Agricultural Statistics Services’ (USDA-NASS) decision to cancel the July Cattle Report and discontinue the County Estimates for Crops and Livestock, among other changes. These reports provide critical data and the decision to end them is completely misguided.

“It is disingenuous for the same agency which touts its commitment to transparency in livestock markets to arbitrarily cease publication of reports which provide just that. While it may be politically expedient to blame appropriators in Congress for today’s decision, cattle producers know better than to believe discontinuing a handful of reports will result in substantive cost savings for the Department,” said NCBA Vice President of Government Affairs Ethan Lane. “NCBA calls on USDA-NASS to immediately reverse this decision and continue delivering on its stated mission of providing timely, accurate, and useful statistics in service to U.S. agriculture.”



NCGA’s Hartman Travels to Capitol Hill to Push for Crop Insurance Improvements

National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) First Vice President Kenneth Hartman Jr. joined a press conference on Capitol Hill today to offer corn growers’ support of legislation to make crop insurance more affordable for producers through the farm bill.  

The press conference centered around today’s introduction of the Federal Agriculture Risk Management Enhancement and Resilience Act, sponsored by Sen. John Hoeven (R-N.D.). The FARMER Act has been endorsed by NCGA.

“Increasing the affordability of crop insurance is a top priority for our farmers,” said Hartman. “We applaud Sen. Hoeven and his colleagues’ efforts in ensuring that these risk management tools continue to be improved and meet the challenges producers face today.”

The legislation seeks to improve federal crop insurance affordability by increasing support for the highest levels of yield and revenue coverage and enhancing the Supplemental Coverage Option.

Original cosponsors include several members of the Senate Agriculture Committee, including Ranking Member Sen.  Boozman (R-Ark.), as well as Sens. Ernst (R-Iowa), Fischer (R-Neb.), Grassley (R-Iowa), Hyde-Smith (R-Miss.) and Marshall (R-Kan.).

Protecting and improving crop insurance continues to be one of NCGA’s top priorities as Congress works on reauthorization of the farm bill.



Growth Energy Launches Campaign to Preserve Summer Access to E15

Growth Energy launched a new ad campaign calling on the Biden administration to protect summer access to E15, an affordable, cleaner-burning fuel option. The digital advertising campaign will run across multiple platforms, including key news sites and YouTube. Watch the ad here.

“The clock is ticking, and drivers across the country need action now to maintain access to lower-cost, earth-friendly fuel this summer,” said Growth Energy CEO Emily Skor. “Our retail partners need time to ensure uninterrupted delivery of E15. That’s why we’re rallying advocates, members, and elected leaders to press the administration to move quickly on a summer waiver, as they have for the past two years.”

To reinforce the message, biofuel producers and retailers from across the country are fanning out across Capitol Hill for Growth Energy’s spring fly-in. From April 16 to April 18, they will remind lawmakers that E15 has saved consumers an average of 10 to 30 cents per gallon—and up to one dollar per gallon in some places—but without an emergency waiver from the Biden Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), American motorists could lose access to these cost savings on June 1. 

“For the past two summers, ethanol producers and farmers have welcomed the Biden administration’s emergency E15 waiver, ensuring drivers across the country have access to an affordable, American-made fuel choice,” said Allison Schwingle, Communications Manager at Marquis Energy who will be on the ground at the fly-in later this month. “This year should be no different. That’s why we’re heading to Washington D.C. to remind lawmakers of the critical need for uninterrupted access to E15 to ensure drivers have a low-cost option to fuel their commutes, road trips, and everything in between.”



LMA Members Gather for Annual Washington D.C. Fly-In   
 
Nearly two dozen Livestock Marketing Association members and staff met with members of both the House of Representatives and Senate, agriculture staff, and U.S. Department of Agriculture officials March 20-22, during the association’s 18th D.C. Fly-In. The event offered an opportunity for livestock auction market owners to share their stories and connect with elected officials.

Throughout the visit, LMA members advocated for the passage of the Amplifying Processing of Livestock in the United States, or A-PLUS Act (H.R. 530), and its Senate companion the Expanding Local Meat Processing Act (S. 813), to end an outdated prohibition and allow an auction owner to own or invest in a small or medium packer. These bills would provide an avenue to increase packing competition and capacity. At the same time, the bills maintain necessary safeguards by prohibiting the largest packers from owning auctions.

The auction market owners also urged Congress to update Packers and Stockyards Act prompt payment requirements in light of slowing mail service and a desire to incentivize electronic payment as the more efficient and secure method. Finally, livestock auction market owners at the Fly-In pushed to ensure that any upcoming rule requiring electronic identification for cattle is not an unfunded mandate.

Their visit to D.C. coincided with a busy and historic week in Congress. There is an active effort by Congress to overturn an administrative rule that would allow fresh beef imports from Paraguay. The Senate voted on a Congressional Review Act resolution that if becomes law, would prevent the rule from taking effect.

Livestock Marketing Association and other cattle industry groups agree that given Paraguay’s history of food and mouth disease the rule poses a significant risk to our nation’s beef herd. The same day members asked Senators to support the resolution, the Senate voted 70-25 for the resolution to overturn the rule. The vote was the largest margin on a Congressional Review Act resolution ever recorded in the Senate.

Brody Peak, LMA board member and chairman of the government and industry affairs committee, said it was a productive trip and he’s grateful for all who took part.

“I know how difficult it is to take time away from your business and family to travel across the country, especially in the spring.” he said. “But the impact a visit like this has on the industry is significant. Developing and maintaining relationships with those making federal policy decisions is key to ensuring the interests of livestock marketers are considered. Those who visited can take pride in protecting our beef industry and given the vote in the Senate, being a part of history."

Members who participated in the fly-in were Joe Don, Brecklynn, Jett and Marly Eaves from Tulsa Stockyards Inc.; Lindsey and Julie Grant from McAlester Union Stockyards; Ben Hale from Western Livestock Commission Company & Order Buying, Inc. and Woodward Livestock Auction Inc; Jim Akers from Bluegrass Stockyards; Brody Peak from Emporia Livestock; Rich Robertson from Crawford Livestock Market; Todd Eberle from Broken Bow Livestock and Burwell Livestock Market; John Willis from Columbia Livestock Market of Lake City; Chad McNew from Greencastle Livestock Market Inc.; Kale McGuinness from Stockland Livestock Auction; Larry Schnell from Stockmen's Livestock Exchange Inc.; Giles and Kelly Brown from Kinder Livestock Auction; and Mandy Geistweidt from Gillespie Livestock Company.
