Compass Ag Solutions’ Bryan Vasseur, chief operating officer, and Garren Bellis, business and risk management consultant, join TSCRA Talk host, Kristen Brown, for a high-level discussion on the cattle market.  

Vasseur starts by explaining the fundamentals that impact and drive the market, going in-depth on seasonals and the cyclical pattern of the markets that create the highs and lows of the year. He discusses similarities and differences between the cash and futures markets.  

Bellis shares about market disrupters including slower changes through drought but also overnight shifts from black swan events. Additionally, they discuss the importance of a risk management plan saying there is a lot to protect but also a lot to gain.
