With a focus on the Australian cattle markets, the Argus Meat & Livestock service provides market participants with tightly specified, trusted benchmarks to manage growing risk, protect margins and monitor price spreads in these exceptionally volatile market conditions.
This service has been developed in close consultation with market participants across the cattle supply chain, including producers, feedlots and processors. It responds to the growing demand for more price transparency and risk management tools in the Australian cattle markets.
BeefEx 2022 panel discussion:
“We’ve got a really accurate weekly index showing us what the value of a feeder steer is – that talks to value discovery not just for lot feeders but right across the supply chain – that’s a grass fed producer in North Queensland, a processor in Brisbane, or an Angus producer in the South – you can draw a correlation off of that” - a major farming, breeding, and feedlot owner speaking about the Argus Feeder Steer Index at BeefEx 2022
