Oct 15, 2018 #MarketMonday w/a Cattle Focus Larry Barber and Jim Akers Help Us Understand Cattle Mkts

Delaney is on a 'work-cation' down in Lexington, KY and she rounded up a few interviews for today's #MarketMonday discussion. One was with podcast sponsor Barber & Sons Cattle Co where she spoke with owner Larry Barber about the state of the cattle industry and what he sees everyday. She also caught up with Jim Akers from Bluegrass Stockyards and they spoke about industry from the perspective of a stockyards/sale barn owner. Very good discussions!With Delaney gone, Mike was in charge of the news roundup for the day, and there are a few stories, Egypt looks to modernize it's wheat buying scheme and retail sales may have inadvertently helped push soybean prices higher today!
