Compared to last week, steers and heifers not well tested however an uneven 
undertone noted.  Supply light as the Memorial Day holiday was this week.  
Demand was moderate to good. Slaughter cows and bulls sold unevenly steady.  
Compared to last week, limited trading of Kansas negotiated fed cattle sold 
3.00 lower at 256.00 to 257.00.  In the hay market, Demand remained strong this 
past week as much of the state continues to experience drought conditions. 
Scattered storms brought limited relief to some areas; however, hay demand 
remains elevated. Tight inventories combined with strong demand have pushed 
prices substantially higher. According to the US Drought Monitor for the week 
of May 21st, in the High Plains Region, temperatures were above normal across 
much of the region this week, with average readings ranging from the low 40s 
along the Canadian border and in the mountains to the mid-70s across southern 
Kansas.
