Observations on the Cattle Cycle

Author

Listed:
  • Breimyer, Harold F.

Abstract

Among all economic cycles that alternately bring cheer and despair to their participants and continuously challenge the ingenuity of analysts, none presents so rhythmic a pattern as does the cycle in cattle numbers. Many studies of the cattle cycle have been attempted but few published. This article sums up previous research and adds new interpretative analysis.
