Feeder Cattle Weighted Average Report for 10/24/2014 - Close
***Final report including replacement cows, pairs and few slaughter cows.***
Offerings: 21,000 Last Sale Oct 10th: 19,000
Compared to the last sale October 10th: Cattle for current delivery lightly
tested. Limited sales of feeder cattle sold mostly steady to 2.00 higher, with
some trades in the east selling 4.00 lower. Calf sales continue strong but
lightly tested for current delivery. Demand moderate to good as cattle futures
remained extremely volatile. Wheat pastures in the Midwest looking good after
some much needed rains covered much of the wheat country. This helped to boost
demand for fall and winter grazing cattle. Supply included 50 percent steers and
heifers over 600 lbs, 62 percent of supply steers and 38 percent heifers. Receipts
included 55 percent from South Central, 11 percent North Central, 9 percent West,
25 percent East. Prices FOB based on net weights after a 2-3 percent pencil shrink
or equivalent, with a 4-8 cent slide on yearlings and 8-12 cent slide on
calves. Deliveries current through March 2015.
