FEEDER CATTLE            10504          9023    16349     
REPLACEMENT CATTLE       166            1304    112       
SLAUGHTER CATTLE         594            492     418       
  
  
Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly 7.00 to 15.00 lower with 
exception of 500-700 lbs steers suitable for grazing steady to 4.00 higher. 
Demand was moderate to good, though buyers wanted to be in at lower prices than 
last week as CME futures have not been very friendly the past couple of weeks.  
 Slaughter cows sold uneven; 2.00 lower to 3.00 higher, while slaughter bulls 
sold steady to 4.00 higher.  Kansas negotiated fed cattle sales sold 5.00 lower 
at 235.00.  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.
