Market Update with Paul Dykstra | Fall 2025

Have questions or comments? We'd love to hear from you!

It’s no secret that the cattle market is looking great with few – if any – signs of changing directions soon. But with prices as high as they are, where can producers capture additional value? And what role does working with your feeder or packer play in product making it to the meat case? 

On this episode of Angus at Work we welcome you to listen in as we visit with Paul Dykstra, director of Supply Management and Analysis at Certified Angus Beef, about:

• His role at Certified Angus Beef,
• Premiums associated with Certified Angus Beef programs,
• How cattle qualify for Certified Angus Beef and what might keep them out of the program. In addition,
• His presentation from Feeding Quality Forum held Aug. 14-15 in Rochester, Minn., 
• How relationships are critical to the continued overall success of the beef industry,
• And more! 

A huge thank you to Vermeer for their sponsorship of this episode.
