Kentucky Weekly Livestock Summary for Jun 13-19, 2014
Receipts This Week Last Week Last Year
17,147 19,348 17,689
Compared to last week: Feeder Steers and Steer Calves 2.00 to 4.00 higher.
Feeder Heifers and Heifer Calves 2.00 to 3.00 higher. Demand very good for all
classes. The entire beef complex continues to post gains. Packers forced to
pay higher money for market ready cattle last week, in the face of tight
supplies. Boxed Beef Cutout values also posted gains for the week; this in
tandem with higher prices paid for slaughter cattle helped fuel higher futures
this week which in turn pushed feeder prices higher. Weather this week has been
hot and humid with pop up thundershowers across the state and a larger system
moving in late in the week. Crops in the western portion of the state in good
shape awaiting the coming showers.
Slaughter Cows and Bulls sold mostly steady.
Supply: Slaughter Cows 5 percent; Slaughter Bulls 1 percent; Feeder cattle 93
percent. In the feeder supply, Steers made up approximately 41 percent and
Heifers approximately 42 percent. Steers and Heifers over 600 lbs totaled
approximately 53 percent. Replacement cattle 1 percent.
