Compared to the last report, prices for alfalfa and grass hay bumped up again for all regions. Pricing remains all over the map and not much has settled in yet with a wide variance between east (rain) and west (no rain). Demand is high and is coming from in state and out of state buyers, as western Kansas and surrounding states drought conditions continue to worsen.
Supply included: 98% Feeder Cattle (53% Steers, 47% Heifers, 0% Bulls); 2% Slaughter Cattle (85% Cows, 15% Bulls). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 86%.
