Feeder CattleReceipts 9,658Last week 5,669Year ago 7,375

Slaughter CattleReceipts 314Last week 268Year ago 416

Replacement CattleReceipts 96Last week 134Year ago 54

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold 4.00 to 9.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 3.00 lower. Demand was good to very good. Trading of negotiated fed cattle sales in feedlots sold 5.00 higher at 240.00. This past week in the hay market, demand remained slow and prices stayed steady for grass hay, while lower quality dairy hay saw a slight decrease in price. Trade remains slow to moderate. Producers continue with fall harvest while also putting up the last few cuttings alfalfa, which seem to be higher quality. There is still an abundance of lower quality alfalfa across the state, that is keeping grinding hay movement steady.

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.
