In the hay market, demand and trade activity remains slow, prices were steady. Producers report hot and dry conditions across the state as many continue swathing and baling their 3rd cuttings. With well above normal temperatures for the week, eastern Kansas witnessed further degradations in drought conditions.

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.
