SLAUGHTER CATTLE 492 673 317
Compared to last week, steers under 700 lbs sold 5.00 to 10.00 lower, while
those over 700 lbs sold uneven;, 2.00 lower to 3.00 higher. Heifers sold
uneven; 5.00 lower to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to
4.00 lower. Kansas negotiated fed cattle sales sold 4.00 lower at 240.00. In
the hay market, hay movement has continued at a slow but steady pace. There has
been a noticeable uptick in hay being transported on area roadways, with much
of it believed to be headed toward wildfire relief efforts. Wildfires in
southwest Kansas resulted in significant losses of cattle, forage, and grazing
acreage. Adequate grass hay supplies are available statewide, with inventory
positioned to assist producers in affected areas as recovery efforts continue.
Overall, demand appears stable, with transportation patterns reflecting support
for areas impacted by recent fires.
