This week’s Weekly Wrap is a full barn.

JBS Greeley’s workers are back on the line with no contract, diesel jumps another 24 cents to $5.64, and USDA’s April WASDE reminds everybody there still aren’t enough cattle and there’s too much wheat. We break down live and feeder cattle, cash trade, slaughter pace, boxed beef, and what a below-capacity kill floor means for your fats and your calves.

On the sale barn side, we run the Sale Barn Double-Shot with cattle runs across the West plus a firm using-horse market, and we tip the hat to sponsors Lone Star Stockyards in Texas and Atkinson Livestock Market “The Old Reliable” up on Highway 20 in Nebraska.

Then it’s grains, inputs, and pain: range-bound corn and beans, wheat trading a war-and-drought risk premium, diesel screaming higher, fertilizer stubbornly expensive, and interest rates that refuse to back off. We hit drought maps, Washington State’s fourth straight drought emergency, and what that means for grass, hay, and stocking rates.

War Reel covers the Iran front, Hormuz and Red Sea shipping risk, and the Black Sea grain corridor – not because we like it, but because it’s why your fuel bill and fertilizer freight won’t calm down. We wrap with Forest Service HQ moving west, the Farm Bridge deadline, sports shenanigans, and an “On This Day” run from the Titanic to a Florida Porsche joyride.
