Learn about the factors that affect beef cattle prices, including market demand, cost of feed, competition, and weather conditions. Understand how these factors can impact farmers and ranchers, and gain insights on how to maximize profits in the beef industry.

The US beef cattle production industry is currently marked by tight supply conditions and elevated prices. Over recent years, persistent drought conditions have led to significant herd liquidation, with beef cow numbers falling to historic lows. This contraction has created a bottleneck in calf production and feeder cattle availability, sustaining high cattle prices. In tandem, elevated feed costs have further pressured prices upwards, driving revenue as cattle producers seek to pass on costs and maintain their heightened profit. As herd rebuilding has remained slow, cattle supplies have remained low and kept prices high even as feed, energy and other key agricultural input costs have declined from their highs in 2022. Industry revenue has grown at a CAGR of 6.3% during the current period to reach an estimated $97.3 billion after declining by 1.0% in 2025. Consumer preferences are shifting in the beef cattle production industry. There is an increasing awareness of environmental and health-related concerns associated with beef consumption. Consequently, many consumers are reducing their intake of conventional beef, turning instead towards more sustainable and perceived healthier alternatives such as grass-fed and organic beef. This shift has spurred growth in these segments as consumers look for transparency and ethical farming practices. Retailers and restaurants have responded accordingly by offering more options that align with these consumer preferences. However, these trends also pose challenges, especially for smaller producers who face significant costs associated with transitioning to sustainable practices or achieving certifications like organic or "sustainably raised." Though opportunities for growth will continue to present themselves, the outlook for the industry as a whole does not look as positive in the next five years. Poultry, pork and plant-based proteins will threaten beef demand as they appeal to health-conscious customers, particularly as cattle prices are elevated. Climate change will also continue to introduce environmental pressures, demanding resilience and adaptability from producers. Periods of stable weather could facilitate herd rebuilding, leading to increased cattle supplies and dropping prices, but continued climatic fluctuations and extreme weather events could reduce the consistency of production and increase revenue volatility. Advancements in technology, such as drones and wearable sensors, promise to help optimize cattle management, improving operational efficiencies and animal welfare. These innovations, however, require investment and broader accessibility to ensure equitable adoption across the industry. Additionally, while global trade disruptions remain a concern due to disease outbreaks and geopolitical tensions, US producers will have opportunities in niche market segments to differentiate themselves, counterbalancing some of these pressures. Overall, revenue for cattle producers is forecast to decline through 2030 at a CAGR of 1.5% to $90.4 billion.

High prices have consistently elevated revenues for cattle producers over the current period but also discouraged herd rebuilding and drained cattle supplies. Cattle prices have surged due to reduced herds in North America, influenced by persistent droughts impeding effective herd rebuilding. Although producers are generally inclined to rebuild, the volatility of high prices, along with the unpredictability of future drought impacts, has discouraged extensive retention practices. Profit has also been pressured by elevated input costs, particularly feed, which remains significantly above pre-2020 levels. Compounding these challenges is the difficulty in passing increased costs onto consumers, who have shown a growing propensity to switch to alternative proteins. This, combined with the inherent volatility in agricultural outputs due to extreme weather events, continues to strain the financial health of producers despite elevated cattle prices. Overall, revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 4.6% over the five years to 2025, including an increase of 2.3% to an estimated $25.8 billion in 2025 alone as beef prices remain on the rise. Consumer behaviour around beef is being reshaped by health perceptions and sustainability concerns exacerbated by economic factors. Persistent health advisories recommending reduced red meat consumption influence both domestic and global market demands, pushing consumers towards substitute proteins. Awareness around sustainability is intensifying interest in plant-based alternatives as environmentally friendly consumption gains traction. While inflation has moderated overall, beef prices continue to rise in response to supply-related constraints, making the protein more costly and steering some consumers toward more affordable options. Industry associations and producers are focusing on marketing beef’s value, quality and affordability to retain consumer interest amid these shifting preferences. The future outlook for the cattle industry will be strongly influenced by red meat prices which will see initial short-term price increases and then expected to ease over time, ultimately resulting in higher price levels in 2030 compared to 2025. These trends are driven by supply constraints and shifting global demands, while herd rebuilding efforts will gradually moderate the huge price increases of the current period. Concurrently, sustained pressures from consumer sustainability concerns are likely to continue spurring interest in alternative proteins, propelling producers toward adopting emission-reducing production methods. Nonetheless, rising disposable incomes, especially in emerging export markets, present opportunities for Canadian producers by increasing demand for premium beef products. These markets promise to buffer challenges faced in traditional markets by amplifying the demand for high-quality, sustainable and organic beef. Capturing these opportunities will require focusing on market diversification, sustainable practices and product differentiation. Additionally, anticipated global population growth supports heightened protein demand overall, positioning Canadian beef exporters to thrive, provided they navigate competitive market dynamics and consumer preferences adeptly. Revenue is expected to climb at a CAGR of 0.4% to reach $26.36 billion over the five years to 2030.
