Feeder CattleReceipts 7,929Last week 9,658Year ago 7,886

Slaughter CattleReceipts 368Last week 314Year ago 664

Replacement CattleReceipts 1,560Last week 96Year ago 1,310

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold 10.00 to 20.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold unevenly steady while slaughter bulls sold 3.00 to 5.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good as CME futures exhibited sharp losses this week. Light trading of negotiated fed cattle sales in feedlots sold steady at 240.00. This past week in the hay market, demand remained slow and prices stayed steady for dairy alfalfa and grass hay. 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 forage across the state, but there is no new movement, as most producers are busy in the fields.

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.
