📊 Texas Cattle on Feed Inventory by Year – February Trends 🐂
Texas cattle on feed (COF) inventory for February 2025 came in at 2.7 million head, marking the lowest level since 2018, when it stood at 2.65 million head. Over the past three decades, Texas COF numbers have fluctuated significantly, with the highest recorded inventory at 3.03 million head in 2006 and the lowest at 2.43 million head in 2016. The average COF inventory across the years stands at 2.738 million head, meaning that 2025 falls below the historical average by 38,000 head.
Compared to the all-time high, 2025's inventory is down 330,000 head, reflecting a notable reduction in feedlot numbers. While this drop continues a broader trend of market adjustments, it remains relatively close to the long-term average. However, the decline from 2024's 2.82 million head signals a tightening supply situation, potentially impacting market dynamics moving forward.
