This article discusses the slow progress of rebuilding the beef herd in Texas and the implications it has for the national beef cattle market. While forage conditions have improved, ranchers have not been holding back heifers or buying replacement heifers at rates that indicate significant growth. The article also mentions the decisions that Texas cattle producers are facing regarding whether to hold back heifers to rebuild their herds, as historically high prices have influenced producers to keep heifers for future productivity. Additionally, the article briefly mentions the launch of an updated version of the Texas Hunt Harvest app, now called Texas Hunt & Fish, which allows hunters and anglers to report harvests and purchase licenses.
