It is expected that this event will increase the area affected by drought, which is already affecting 36% of the beef cattle inventory within an area experiencing drought (Graph 2).<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Graph 2: Cattle areas in Drought (USDA) and U.S. Seasonal Drought Outlook (NOAA)\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1721 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/amarillo.tamu.edu\/agecon\/files\/2021\/11\/BC-Pic-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"713\" height=\"272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agrilife.org\/agecon\/files\/2021\/11\/BC-Pic-2.png 1426w, https:\/\/agrilife.org\/agecon\/files\/2021\/11\/BC-Pic-2-1024x391.png 1024w, https:\/\/agrilife.org\/agecon\/files\/2021\/11\/BC-Pic-2-768x293.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 713px) 100vw, 713px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>La Ni\u00f1a has the potential to affect the winter forage supply for stockers and cow-calf operations locally, pressuring prices, and increasing production costs. The likelihood of increasing cow culling, especially in states already suffering drought, will increase. An inventory reduction will increase cow-beef production in the near future while pressuring on cull cow prices.\u00a0 But, a reduction in calf supply for 2023 will lead to higher cattle prices in the long term.<\/p>\n<p>Pastures and wheat fields for grazing conditions would deteriorate this year across Texas and the Southern Plains if La Ni\u00f1a conditions still exist. Increased supplemental feeding with higher costs would result. An increase in the volume of feeder beef cattle in auction markets and feed lot costs could be expected.<\/p>\n<p>Globally, La Ni\u00f1a could increase the risk of higher feed cost prices. La Ni\u00f1a usually has a negative impact on corn production in Argentina and Brazil, where corn is produced during this time of the year.\u00a0\u00a0 Concerns of corn production in Argentina and Brazil due to La Ni\u00f1a dry weather tied with lower corn stocks and yields in the U.S. will increase corn price volatility. Corn prices are among the best indicators of feeding costs and are usually negatively correlated with feed cattle prices (Graph 3). As shown in the graph below, feeder cattle prices (Blue) tend to mode down when corn prices increase (Black Line).<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Graph 3.

While steer slaughter has increased year-to-date in 2021 over 2020. It has been 2.7 percent less than in 2020 over the last 3 months.\u00a0 That indicates that the only reason beef production for the year is greater than in 2020 is because of the pandemic effects on beef packing in the Spring of 2020.\u00a0 However, the number of cows culled during 2021 has increased beef production.<\/p>\n<p>Beef production in 2021 is on pace to be record large.\u00a0 While average all cattle dressed weights should average below 2020, it\u2019s the second highest on record.\u00a0 Total beef production is expected to be about 2 percent lower in 2022. Beef production will also depend on the effect of drought on the cow culling rate. \u00a0Reductions in cow inventory are expected to support higher prices for weaned cattle in 2022 and 2023.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Graph 4.
