Feeder Yearlings And Calves
Higher Across The Country

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. —(USDA)— Yearling feeder steers and heifers sold steady to $1 higher on a light test around the country last week, calves $1-3 higher in both the central regions and in the Southeast.

Demand remains good for yearlings, but availability is extremely limited. A producer could nearly name his price for a large string of uniform yearling steers weighing around 800 pounds. Feedyards are being forced to go straight to feed with heavy calves, which they don’t like to do. The performance on these big fleshy bawlers cannot compete with that of an aged and weathered yearling.

Stocker cattle trading was fairly volatile with good overall demand. The largest advances were shown on weights under 450 pounds, which are ideal to take to wheat pasture.

We are just now getting into the big fall run, and receipts should increase dramatically as many major cattle producing areas receive their first hard freeze.

Almost 600 loads of October live cattle have been tendered for delivery, and so far all of them have come on a live basis. All these deliveries should help cash fat cattle prices get in line with the board.

Only 26 percent of the week’s reported auction volume weighed more than 600 pounds, and 44 percent were heifers. Prices are expressed as weighted averages, where available.

Auction receipts totaled 342,900 head, the previous week 296,500.
