WASHINGTON, August 22, 2011 – The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) Livestock and Grain Market News site was recently featured in the CME Group's Daily Livestock Report.

 

 

The report discussed the AMS interactive Dashboards which allow users to view data for slaughter swine, lamb and cattle markets in an easy-to-use, customizable way.

 

 

Dashboards provide users with quick, easy access to volume and price information that can be customized and downloaded. Dashboards are user-friendly visualization tools that bring market data to life and complement the existing data available through the AMS Market News site.
