## Resource

Howdy, daylight burners. Friday weekly wrap of the Friggin' Farm & Ranch Report. Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins bailed on her Douglas, Arizona screwworm facility ribbon-cutting with no reschedule while the parasite sits about 80 miles off the Texas border. Cattle finally look like they're building a floor, crude stayed hot even with a little profit-taking, and the Farm Bill picked up a stack of amendments headed into a floor vote next week. We run the full board: Markets (live cattle, feeders, hogs, corn, beans, wheat, diesel, crude); Cattle/Beef (herd at multi-decade lows, Cargill Milwaukee closure, boxed beef inversion 3rd week in a row); Sale Barn Pulse (Joplin's monster run, light receipts at OKC West, Beaver County replacements screaming tight supply into 2027); Inputs/Energy (diesel still a punishing line item, fertilizer ugly with urea feeling the Hormuz war-risk premium); War Reel (tanker seizures, insurance math, and what it does to your fuel bill and freight); Rural Americana (one rural hospital win, one gut-punch closure, plus a broadband bright spot); Policy/Macro (Farm Bill H.R. 7567 amendments, DOJ packer probe, and Rollins' canceled border trip). Lone Star Stockyards – Wildorado, Texas. Straight talk, fair shake, cattle sold right. Sale every Tuesday at 11 AM Central. Spring catalog open through May 30 at lonestarstockyards.com. Disclaimer: Markets move. Numbers quoted are settlement closes for Friday, April 24, 2026. This show is for information and a little entertainment, not investment advice.
