In this short industry overview, Randy Blach, CEO of CattleFax, distills key insights on the state of the U.S. cattle and beef markets. Speaking to producers at the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) Convention, he emphasizes how shifts in supply, demand, and trade were shaping prices and profitability at the time.

Randy highlights the cyclical nature of the cattle market noting how herd rebuilding, feed costs, and consumer demand interact to influence producer margins. He stresses the importance of data-driven decision-making, urging ranchers and industry professionals to plan proactively rather than reactively in response to volatility.

Throughout the clip, Blach’s tone is pragmatic and optimistic, reinforcing that the future of the beef industry depends on innovation, discipline, and adaptability. He concludes with a call for producers to stay informed, use market intelligence, and make strategic choices that align with long-term sustainability.
