Good report on 10,000 cattle isn't enough to harm the market. Though it does sound like something the rancher did that was in error. As neighbor ranchers didn't loose any cattle.

I like that girl Ann Barnhardt. She has always had well researched information

Gist of the article for those with no time or tendency to go to the link:

“I know that video clip going around looks awful, but let me give some context here.

There has been extreme heat and humidity in Western Kansas and cattle have died. This is normal, and 10,000 head total statewide is not a “mass die-off that will cripple the beef supply.” Not even close. ...”

Great post on the cattle die off.

The guy is exactly right about feedlot cattle being in danger when it’s hot. It’s clear from the pics that the dead cows have been hauled from someplace and are being stacked for burial. At 1,000$ per it’s well worth the owner’s effort to make sure they have plenty of water. There’s no sign of a feed lot in the pics so I have to wonder how far they hauled the carcasses?

The feedlot guys I know, some in the family, always own a water tanker to help avoid these kinds of kills. they’re expensive.
