Cattle Markets Trending Higher

 
The cattle markets have been trending upwards, with prices much higher than they were a year ago.
 
That according to Brian Perillat, Manager and Senior Analyst with Canfax.
 
He says they're seeing big volumes of cattle come to market during this fall run.
 
"With these calf prices as strong as they are and just tight supplies of feed, we have seen calves come to market," commented Perillat. "They like the prices, so it makes that decision fairly easy."

Video: How to (and not to) resuscitate newborn calves

Calving is a natural process, and most cows will give birth to a healthy calf without issues. However, there are times when things go wrong and you need to know how to save a baby calf. If a newborn calf requires resuscitation, it is recommended to put them in the calf recovery position, poke a clean straw in their nose, dribble a few drops of water in their ear, or rub them vigorously. Do not hang the calf upside down.
