REPLACEMENT CATTLE 138 219 430
SLAUGHTER CATTLE 75 116 212
Compared to the previous week, slaughter cow prices remained steady, while
slaughter bulls saw an increase of $2.00 to $3.00 per hundredweight (cwt).
Demand was reported as good for slaughter animals and very good for replacement
cattle. However, overall supply was very light due to extreme heat warnings
across the region, which likely limited cattle movement. The top slaughter bull
brought $227.00/cwt, and the top slaughter cow sold for $174.00/cwt. Among
replacement cattle, the highest-selling bred cows reached $3,450.00 per head,
while the top cow-calf pairs sold for $4,500.00 per pair. According to the
USDA's Cold Storage Report released Friday, the total pounds of beef in cold
storage were down 3 percent from the previous month and 1 percent lower than
the same time last year, indicating a tightening in available beef supplies.
