High prices have consistently elevated revenues for Canadian 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, but extreme cattle prices have allowed profit to recover and expand since its low in 2022. 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 4.4% since 2020, including an increase of 2.0% to reach an estimated $25.6 billion in 2025 as beef prices remain on the rise. Consumer behaviour around beef is being reshaped by health perceptions and sustainability concerns, as well as high beef prices. 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 like pork and poultry. Industry associations and producers are focusing on marketing beef’s value, quality and affordability to retain consumer interest amid these shifts. 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 are 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 beef export markets, present opportunities for Canadian producers by increasing demand for premium beef products. Expanding into new markets will be particularly important for beef producers and the cattle farmers supplying them as US-Canada trade tensions and tariffs shake the stability of this major buyer. Additionally, anticipated global population growth will support heightened protein demand overall. Revenue is expected to climb at a CAGR of 0.1% to reach $25.8 billion over the five years to 2030.

The Cattle Feeder Market is estimated to be valued at USD 3.2 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 4.5 billion by 2035, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5% over the forecast period.
