Compared to last week, feeder steers sold 1.00 to 5.00 higher, with the exception of 800 to 900 lbs selling 3.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 700 lbs sold 3.00 to 5.00 higher; over 700 lbs steady to 3.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold uneven; breakers and boners steady to 3.00 lower, leans 3.00 to 4.00 higher. Slaughter bulls 3.00 to 6.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good. Compared to last week, fed slaughter steers and heifers in the feedyards sold 3.00 higher at 148.00. In the hay market, prices were steady, and demand remained strong. As the drought drags on, spirits are low, and concerns remain high with producers and end users in the hay and forage industry. Reports indicate there is not much out there to purchase, unless one is willing to pay up for it. Those that have hay left are either keeping it for their own use or hanging on to it for even higher prices.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.

Source: USDA AMS, as filed — nothing recomputed and nothing rounded. This summary aggregates the same sales the Kansas barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
