Abstract

Simulations of a quarterly agriculture sector model suggest that all livestock producers initially benefit from lower feed grain prices. In the longer run, cattle feeders, hog producers, and dairy producers appear to benefit while poultry producers and cow—calf enterprises are apparently worse off. Retail meat prices are generally lower.
