It’s official! Starting this week, the Livestock Risk Protection (LRP) program opened coverage for beef-on-dairy calves and dairy cull cows, providing an effective risk management tool to dairy producers looking to secure beef revenue. With no upfront capital required and no need to tie up funds in the futures market, LRP offers a practical, accessible way for dairy producers to manage cattle price risk.
Today’s high cattle prices represent a new and important revenue stream for dairy operations, and locking in those values can protect that revenue and enhance long-term planning. As beef-on-dairy and strategic culling become core parts of modern herd management, LRP helps safeguard income from marketing cattle, offering timely protection in volatile markets and supporting confident decision-making in a rapidly evolving industry.
