Hay prices, across the board, continue to weaken as new hay hits the ground. Feedyards do not seem to be buying much with lower cattle numbers and an abundance of other feed options out there along with the availability of 2023 carry over hay. Second cut alfalfa is being finished up and producers are starting on 3rd. Yields have had mixed results. First cutting for many areas was light with second being better.

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.
