Fluid Milk and Cream — Western U.S.
June 10
Much of the West is hotter and drier than
usual. Temperatures in California have
been boosted as much as 10-15 degrees
higher than normal, hitting triple digit
temperatures in several areas. Some crops
are reportedly drying out quickly in the
heat. Alfalfa is on its third cutting. Milk
production is seasonally decreasing, but
output is still abundant. Bottling orders
are lower.
Milk yield is level in Arizona. Some dairy
manufacturers with available capacity are
bringing in out-of-state milk supplies. Class
I demand is steady.
Milk is widely available in New Mexico.
Milk output is heavy, and Class I orders are
lower. Generous volumes are clearing to
balancing plants, and holdover numbers
are high.
In the Pacific Northwest, depleted subsoil
moisture is limiting the impact of recent
rainfall on improving drought conditions.
Contacts share that several counties expe-
riencing parched conditions are requesting
state drought declarations. With that said,
the region experienced temperatures
optimal for cow comfort this week, and
milk output continues to be strong. Double
digit overbase programs are in place
to help manage the abundance. Class I
demand is lower, but demand for Class II
and III is stable.
In the mountain states of Idaho, Utah
and Colorado, milk production is steady
to heavy. Some contacts report that spot
loads are available in Idaho at discounts of
up to $5.50 under Class IV. Bottling orders
are level to lower. Contracted condensed
skim is steady, and limited spot loads are
available around flat class pricing.
Cream supplies are ample. Butter
production is mixed, and the same is
true for ice cream, as well. Some plant
managers say that Southwestern ice cream
production is decreasing, while others
report that production is still very active in
the Northwest. Some contacts believe this
is an effort to refill the ice cream pipeline
after a heatwave passed through the
Pacific Northwest a few weeks ago.
Cream multiples dropped a few points at
the top of the range this week.

Compared to last week, steers and heifers
sold uneven; 3.00 lower to 1.00 higher.
Demand was reported moderate to good
nationwide as receipts returned to normal fol-
lowing the Memorial Day holiday week. Order
buyers were wanting cattle to fill empty pens;
however, most were wanting to take on
inventory at lower prices. Cattle feeders are
faced with high costs of gain as corn continues
to be high at many areas nationwide and the
fed cattle market at 120.00; however, with the
back months of the futures contracts on either
side of 130.00 there is still a lot of interest in
feeding cattle.
The heat has arrived across the midsection
of country with a vengeance as many areas
that never see 100 degrees in a summer have
already experienced that. Couple that with the
drought in the Dakotas and it makes for a very
disconcerting year for many ranchers in the
Northern Plains and Upper Midwest.
Although still very hot and humid, the
weather seemed to break from chances of rain
every day and farmers went to the fields in full
force to make hay while the sun shines.
Most of the coming week looks dry so there
should be many tons of hay put up this week
as farmers try to get caught up.
According to preliminary slaughter data,
Year-to-Date Cattle slaughter through May is
near 7 percent more than last year and near
6 percent more than the previous five-year
average. All classifications of the beef cattle
segment (steers, heifers, beef cows and bulls)
are around 8 percent more than a year ago
and 18.5 percent more than the previous
five-year average.
Beef cow slaughter has been aggressive this
year with almost 1.4 million cows harvested
so far this year as of the end of May. The last
time that the beef cow numbers were this
large at this time was in the contraction year
of 2010. Those cows were then sold off and
an aggressive heifer slaughter was noted at
the same time and just a few short years later,
high prices for feeder cattle were noted in
2013 and 2014.
Negotiated live trading of fed cattle in the
Southern Plains sold at 119.00 to 120.00,
while dressed sales in Nebraska sold at mostly
191.00. Choice boxed beef values hit a plateau
and closed the week 1.42 lower at 337.56,
while Select was 6.52 lower at 305.21 for the
same time period. Boxed-beef values seem
to have topped with prices staying in line
with last week’s trade range with analysts
predicting a lull in beef demand as consumers
react to the higher retail prices and hotter
weather moving in.
Weekly Cattle Slaughter under federal
inspection estimated at 665K for the week,
127K more than last week, and 20K more than
a year ago. Auction volume this week included
57 percent weighing over 600 lbs and 42
percent heifers.
