Dairy Market Report
Compiled by USDA Market News Service • Madison
WESTERN FLUID MILK AND CREAM REVIEW
(USDA Market News)
Madison, Wis.
Oct. 21
In California, farm milk production is up, follow-
ing typical seasonal patterns. Milk protein and
butterfat components are steadily improving. Bot-
tled milk requests from retailers and food service
are slightly higher. Orders from most educational
institutions are steady.
Demands for some Class 2 dairy products,
such as sour cream, are ramping up. However,
interest for Class 3 (ice cream) is seasonally
declining.
Heavy milk intakes continue clearing into Class
4b processing plants, as many cheese manu-
facturers are running operations at near to full
capacity.
According to the Dairy Market News National
Retail Report-Dairy for the week of Oct. 14-20,
the national weighted average advertised price
for one gallon of milk is $2.55. The weighted
average regional price in the Southwest is $2.28.
Pacific Northwest milk production continues
along typical seasonal patterns. Farm milk output
is near the bottom of the annual cycle.
Although high winds, heavy rains and a couple
tornadoes battered the Washington and Oregon
coastlines, industry contacts report minimal is-
sues at dairy farms or processing facilities.
Bottling demand is steady and milk is in good
balance with current processing needs.
Dairy contacts in the mountain states of Colo-
rado, Utah and Idaho report milk production con-
tinues to slowly trail off seasonally. Components
are improving.
In Idaho, several new dairy installations and
existing farms adding cows have given a boost to
cow numbers. Many dairy farmers seem willing to
hold onto cows longer with inexpensive feed and
low cull cow prices.
Milk pooled on Pacific Northwest Order 124
totaled 608.0 million pounds in September 2016.
Class I utilization accounted for about 27.6 per-
cent of producer milk. The uniform price was
$15.77, $0.02 below last month and $0.59 below
one year ago.
Western condensed skim supplies are readily
available for drying, as requests from ice cream
makers are seasonally lower. Therefore, heavy
condensed skim volumes are clearing into NDM
and SMP manufacturing. Cream is more avail-
able throughout the West. Most cream supplies
are clearing into butter churning.
Demand from ice cream processors is weak-
ening.
However, the interest from sour cream and
cream cheese makers is seasonally active. Many
sellers and buyers are finalizing cream contracts
for the first quarter of 2017. This week, multiples
for all classes are lower, ranging from 1.03 to
1.20.

Compared to Oct. 14: Feeder steers and heif-
ers sold mostly $3 to $4 lower. However, there
were some auctions reported slightly higher this
week.
Steer and heifer calves sold mostly $3 to $6
lower, with unweaned calves selling up to $10
lower.
It’s been a month since this report has men-
tioned a higher trend, as the auctions that were
called higher this week were sharply lower last
week.
Many more spring born calves are making their
way to the market place in mid to late October
and buyers continue to be very selective in their
purchases. Preconditioning, weaning for over 30
days and two rounds of shots are paramount for
producers to getting top dollar for their calves at
this time of year.
Diversified operations sometimes don’t have
the time to get out of the combine cab and get
all the work done when weather is optimum for
harvesting.
However, that can pay off in the long run if that
work had been done a while ago.
Grass has been plentiful in the Plains this
summer with very few spots that didn’t receive
ample rainfall, leaving cows and calves in the
best body condition scores for this time of year
in a long time.
Cattle futures had good gains in the market on
Oct. 17 and 18, only to get whiplash a little on
Oct. 19.
Oct. 20 climbed rather mightily throughout the
trading session and Oct. 21 has been an over-
all good day as feeder futures closed the week
where it was on Oct. 10 while live cattle futures
closed around $2 higher since then.
Yearlings are still in high demand this week
on Tuesday with a package of 735 lb. steers in
Kingsville, Mo., sold at $137 and on Wednesday
a load of 793 lb. steers sold in Kearney, Neb., at
Huss-Platte Valley Livestock at $130.
Also on Oct. 19 in Bassett, Neb., a load of 895
lb. steers found new owners when the gavel fell at
$126.75 and on Oct. 20 in Pratt, Kan., a load of
900 lb. steers sold at $126.10.
Optimism abounds for their new owners and
they begin the process of marketing them for a
profit.
Packers have made their stockholders happy
with the large profits in the third quarter and still
have a very positive outlook as the fourth quarter
starts off with a bang. Large protein slaughter con-
tinues as the cattle slaughter still hovers above
600,000 even with some plants doing their sched-
uled cleanup procedures these past few weeks.
Hog slaughter is breaking records as the larg-
est slaughter on record was estimated this week
at 2,514,000; which would be 15,000 head more
than the previous record set back in December
2015.
Hurricane Matthew idled some southeastern
hog plants certain days last week and those
packers need to try and make headway into their
unscheduled backup of around 150,000 originally
scheduled for harvest last week.
The Cattle on Feed Report was released Oct.
21 afternoon with Oct. 1 reported at 100 percent,
Placements at 98 percent and Marketings at 105
percent with placements being well below es-
timates and others coming in slightly under the
industry analyst estimates.
