Herd liquidation hasn’t slowed down with the new year. Aberdeen Livestock owner Kevin Larson says the cull cows flowing through the sale barn are never-ending. “I’ve been around for 27 years, and I’ve never seen this many cows moving; just pot load after pot load. We’ve sold 500-900 cows every week since the beginning of January.” Larson says there was still demand left in the market for cull cows. With bull sale season almost here, old herd bulls are bringing good money too. “What really jumped was the bull market. They came in hot last week at $.96-$1.11 per pound.”
