Comments: Monday’s regular cattle sale
featured over 350 head, with a good supply
of cows and bulls and a good run of pairs.
Slaughter cows were stronger, with a top of
78 cents per pound, and an average price of
66 to 67 cents. Slaughter bulls were steady,
topping out at 98 cents, and an average of
88-93 cents per pound. Cow calf pairs were
just above splitting price, with mid age and
older cows with fresh calves at side bringing
$1050-1150 per pair. Young pairs with fresh
calves brought $1150-$1250 per pair. Pairs
with bigger calves at side were split. Baby
calves brought $200-$475 per head. Not
enough feeder cattle for a true test, though
600-700 weight steers brought $1.44, with
an average of $1.29, while heifers brought
$1.14 to $1.20. Next Monday, May 24, we’ll
have a feeder special and we will be off the

California milk production is declining
following seasonality, but output is still
copious. Class I demand is down. Class
III orders are growing.
In Arizona, milk yield is flat. Some
dairy manufacturers with available ca-
pacity have been supplementing local
milk supplies with out of state milk.
Class I demand is steady. Balancing
plants are active, and cream cheese and
other Class III production is picking up.
Milk output in New Mexico is level.
Class I and II orders are down. Balancing
plants are working through steady milk
supplies.
Milk is abundant in the Pacific North-
west. Overbase programs are in place
to help keep supplies in good balance
with processing needs. Additionally,
organic milk that would have been des-
tined for a plant damaged by fire earlier
this spring is being diverted to conven-
tional facilities throughout the region.
Some contacts say that this additional
milk source has made output seem even
heavier. Class I orders are lower, but
Class II and III demand is growing.
Milk production is strong in the
mountain states of Idaho, Utah and
Colorado. Some contacts say milk is
especially long in Idaho, where it can
be found at discounts of up to $6.00
under Class IV. Bottling orders are flat to
lower. Limited spot loads of condensed
skim are available around flat class
pricing, but contracts are steady.
Due to holiday plant closures, cream
loosened this week. Some contacts
anticipate supplies tightening soon,
as summer heat begins to affect milk
components.
In the meanwhile, ice cream
manufacturing is absorbing heavy
volumes, and butter churns have no
difficulty sourcing quantities needed for
seasonally decreased production. This
week, the cream multiples range shifted
slightly lower.

Compared to last week, steers and heifers
sold steady to 4.00 higher on this holiday
shortened week. There were several markets
that were closed due to the Memorial Day
holiday and they took time to give their
employees a much needed rest as the weather
is starting to finally move towards summer
temps.
Demand was reported as good to very good
for both calves and yearlings at auctions that
did hold sales this week.
A barn burner of a sale occurred on Memo-
rial Day at Russell (IA) Livestock Market; their
annual special had a top notch load of yearling
steers weighing 701 lbs sold at 162.25. On
Thursday at Clarinda (IA) Livestock Auction
a load of 940 lb steers sold at 137.00 and on
Friday at Fort Pierre (SD) Livestock, four loads
of reputation steers weighing 829 lbs sold
at 154.00.
The calendar in the month of May seemed to
drag on as cloudy skies and lower than normal
temps took its toll on the outlook for growing
forages. This week, ranchers started getting
the haybines and round balers moving in the
Midwest. Hay tonnage may be a little less this
year, but the quality should be sufficient for
beef producers. Ranchers will be watching
their hay inventories moving forward.
The CME Cattle Complex was mixed for
the week as front months were sharply
lower on Monday and Friday this week was
a lower day all around. For the week, the
August CME Feeder Cattle contract was 1.425
lower to close the week at 149.925 while the
September contract was 0.775 lower to finish
at 152.750. The June Live Cattle contract was
0.950 higher on the week while the August
contract was 0.525 lower. Negotiated live
trading of fed cattle in the Southern Plains
sold at 119.00 to 120.00, while dressed sales in
