I think we are going to see more than a small spike in the price of groceries. In the last month our local equity sale barn has had to kill baby calves as nobody will put in the minimum 20 dollar bid on these calves. The price of corn has doubled as has the price of soybeans and the price of hay. Most of the cattle buyers know that these prices won't turn a profit for them in the feedlots. I think the numbers of hogs and even chickens have been reducing in response to the price feed. We will see this on our store shelves very soon in some produce lines and later in other items of consumption. I would suggest that you purchase nonperishable items while they are realatively cheap. I have already noticed the price of milk and eggs rise substantially. Whats your take?

P.S. I have reduced my personal cattle herd by 40% in response to the increase in the price of hay from 30-35 dollars a big round bale to 70-75 dollars.
