Guess I did miss where the subsides were here before the latest blenders credit they are using now. But those subsides were small in comparison to the subsides the farmers were getting cause of cheap corn.

If cattle aren't making money don't buy them. The price of cattle has gone up and will continue to do so with high corn.
