Not enough sales this week to compare two weeks ago, however a higher undertone
noted as the futures and fed cattle markets have improved since the last
auction marketing week occurred. A Light test of Kansas negotiated fed cattle
sales sold steady to 3.00 higher at 229.00 to 232.00, mostly 232.00. In the
hay market, Hay movement remains steady and is expected to continue at a
similar pace throughout the remainder of the year. Many producers are retaining
hay inventories in anticipation of improved pricing next year rather than
lowering prices to move supplies in the current market. Warmer than normal
weather conditions have allowed livestock to remain on grass and wheat pasture,
resulting in forage utilization below typical seasonal levels.
