Tight US cattle supplies, with the national herd at an 86.2 million head 75-year low as of January 1, 2026, remain the dominant driver of elevated ground beef prices amid ongoing herd contraction. USDA forecasts point to wholesale beef prices rising 6.9% and farm-level cattle prices up 6.1% for the year, following sharp gains in 2025, as beef production is projected to decline nearly 1% to 25.5 billion pounds. Recent data show national average ground beef at $6.90 per pound in April 2026, up from prior levels, with strong consumer demand and limited lean-trim imports providing only partial offset. Key catalysts ahead include summer demand patterns, potential weather effects on feed costs, and any early signs of herd rebuilding, which analysts expect no earlier than 2028.

The St. Louis Fed bases its numbers for ground beef prices on the BLS's CPI release. This market will immediately resolve to "Yes" upon a qualifying update of the St. Louis Fed's chart. If no data for any month of 2026 is released by the scheduled date for the January 2027 CPI release, this market will resolve according to the data for 2026 already available at that time.
The resolution source for this market measures prices to the third decimal place. Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
