Export meatpackers grouped in the ABC consortium reported that their slaughter accounted for 41.2% of the total, unchanged from the previous month but more than 6 percentage points above the 35.0% share recorded in July 2025.

Very tight supply, further constrained by persistent rainfall that is complicating loadings, remains the main force driving the slaughter cattle market, with prices continuing to rise and steer values steadily approaching US$6 per kilo carcass weight.
