New Mexico | been those "niche" ( the supposedly smaller non consolidated market sects ) that have been THEE price driver in cattle for the past 5 years.
That is especially evident today, btw.
The afore is perhaps one of those changes you speak of.
( simply $10 to $15 cwt better live weight returns on finished cattle in ALL the niches, thus those operators have been thee price driver for feeder cattle now for quite some time )
Bigger is NOT necessarily better.
You'll see starting in 012, that the bigger sale barns will actually lose volume as comped to the past.
"Bigger is NOT change. Diametric change though IS change."
Looks to me like we're going to more multi species production schemes.
That means more sheep added to cattle grazing operations.
If the big barns cannot fathom the afore, someone else will.
It's about that simple.
