Market Notes

Compared to last week: Not enough comparable sales on feeder steers or heifers due to last weeks light test, but a higher undertone was noted. Steer and heifer calves traded mostly firm to 5.00 higher, with instances of up to 10.00 higher on the lighter weight calves. Slaughter cows and bulls traded steady. Trading activity was active on good buyer demand. A good portion of the trading region received some precipitation in the form of rain over the weekend ranging from a tenth to three tenths. However, more rain is needed to help the winter wheat crop emerge.

Supply included: 74% Feeder Cattle (53% Steers, 46% Heifers, 1% Bulls); 26% Slaughter Cattle (98% Cows, 2% Bulls); 0% Replacement Cattle (100% Bred Cows). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 36%.
