SLAUGHTER CATTLE 471 428 849
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 230 361 398
FEEDER CATTLE 167 62 55
Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers were both too lightly tested
this week to develop any market trend. Feeder quality this week was mostly
plain to average. Demand for feeders was mostly good. A large portion of the
feeder offering was comprised of fall and winter born calves. Some sets were
weaned 60 days while others sold straight off the cow. Market activity was
mostly moderate to active today. Weigh up cows comprised a majority of the
offering this week. Demand was mostly moderate to good demand for moderate
offerings. Demand for slaughter cows was mostly moderate. Packers pick around
to try to find cows to fit slaughter cow buying orders. Slaughter cows sold
mostly steady to 3.00 higher on all classes in a narrow comparison. Feeding cow
demand was good to very good again this week which kept most prices mostly over
slaughter ticket prices. Feeding cows sold fully steady. Quality this week was
average to very attractive. Weigh up conditions were average to above average
again this week. Many cows continue to come off grass and are mostly empty as a
result. Slaughter bulls sold on good demand this week as additional packer
buyers were in the stands actively buying bulls for harvest. Slaughter bulls
sold mostly 1.00 to 3.00 higher in a narrow comparison. Bull quality was
average to very attractive this week and slightly better than last week. Young
cows suitable to feed or rebreed sold on very good demand for light to moderate
offerings. Most offerings sold with steady undertones. Quality was mostly
average to very attractive today. Very little difference in price was seen
between 2 and 3 year old cows which had lost calves as demand for rebreed and
recip cows remains very good.
