Cattle are sitting near historic highs, but producers know this market still feels uneasy underneath the surface.

Tonight on Boots & Bushels, we break down why agriculture continues getting squeezed from every direction at the same time — rising input costs, fertilizer pressure, tighter regulation, Farm Bill uncertainty, disease concerns, and grain markets that still do not fully trust this rally.

We also cover the Amsterdam Island cattle story that has producers talking, DOJ and USDA pressure on beef packers, active severe weather across the Plains and Midwest, and what crude oil could mean for farm margins heading into this week.

Markets covered:
• Corn
• Soybeans
• Wheat
• Live Cattle
• Feeder Cattle
• Lean Hogs
• Class III Milk
• Crude Oil

Weather threats covered:
• Severe thunderstorms
• Large hail
• Heavy rain
• Flooding risk
• Tornado potential
• Delayed planting windows
• Drought pressure underneath the storms
