Beef finishers are beginning to believe that there is no limit to the 'appetite' for cattle at the factories as the trade and prices continue to surge ahead as never before.
The processors have conceded a further strengthening of 5-10 cents/kg in the prices being paid for the stock as the competition between the factories for finished cattle force their hand on the price.
