Requests for Class I are up due to schools in
the Southeast drawing some milk to fi ll their
pipelines.
Class II demand is slightly lower as ice cream
manufacturers are starting to decrease their or-
ders. Class III intakes are increasing.
Milk production in the Pacifi c Northwest is
following typical seasonal trends. Handlers have
refi lled the school bottling pipeline and manufac-
turers have adequate to comfortable supplies of
milk for processing needs. Available milk is readily
fi nding a home within the region.
Milk production in the mountain states of Ida-
ho, Colorado, and Utah is still strong. Industry
contacts say most milk is able to fi nd a home
within the region, but supplies are heavy and
some discounted loads are available. The market

FLUID MILK AND CREAM REVIEW – WEST
(USDA Market News)
Sept. 28
In California, farm milk production is increas-
ing as dairy operations are recovering from the
recent heat wave. The milk market is currently
balanced. Processing plants are running at or near
full schedules. Intakes into most educational insti-
tutions are steady to slightly up this week. Interest
from Class 3 (ice cream) is slowly decreasing.
According to California Department of Food and
Agriculture, August 2017 pool receipts of milk in the
state total 3.08 billion pounds. This is 1.7 percent
lower compared to the same month a year ago.
From January through August 2017, receipts are
2.7 percent lower from the comparable period in
2016.

Compared to Sept. 22: Steers and heifers were un-
even, mostly 4.00 lower to 4.00 higher as some sales
early in the week quoted up to 8.00 lower and later in
the week quoted 7.00 to 8.00 higher.
Demand for feeder cattle and yearlings was moder-
ate to very good, with many headed home to farmer
feeders. For unweaned or short-weaned calves, de-
mand was light to moderate at best.
Corn harvest is in full swing, with farmers looking to
feed part of their corn crop to livestock, especially with
the lower grain prices across the country.
Receipts were somewhat curtailed and wheat
planting halted as rain and cooler temperatures moved
through the Southern Plains.
On Thursday at the Valentine Livestock Auction in
Valentine, Neb., there were many bell-ringing sales.
There were two loads of steers weighing 719 pounds
at 182.75 and a load of 866-pound steers bringing
171.25. An impressive amount of 159.00 was paid for
a load of 853 pound heifers, which was only 5.00 lower
than steers at the same weight.
The Phillip Livestock Auction in Phillip, S.D., had
noteworthy sales on Tuesday, with a load of 530-pound
steers selling at 196.00.
Follow the leader was played this week, with feeder
cattle trading mostly lower early-week, following the
triple-digit losses observed in the CME live and feeder
cattle futures on Monday. This was due to the Board
reacting to last week’s Cattle on Feed report, as Place-
ments were signifi cantly higher than expected.
However, the Board turned positive mid-week and
provided support to the feeder cattle market.
Compared to last Friday, October live cattle futures
closed 2.48 lower at 109.10 and December was
115.25, down 2.18. October feeder cattle futures closed
3.87 lower at 152.23 and November closed at 154.00,
down 3.62, both compared to last Friday.
