Fluid Milk and Cream — Western U.S. Jan. 6 Milk production is trending higher in California this week. Bottling demand is increasing in the state, as schools have begun to return from their winter breaks. Class II demand is picking up; processors are running busier schedules following lighter year-end production. Farm level milk production is steady in Arizona. Processors in the state are running busy schedules to utilize available supplies of milk. Demand is unchanged across all Classes. In New Mexico milk production is steady. Staffing shortages and a shortage of truck drivers are causing some Southwest pro- cessors to run reduced schedules. Demand is steady to higher for bottling, while Class II demand is unchanged. Milk production is steady to higher in the Pacific Northwest. Stakeholders say that extreme weather in the area has not reduced cow comfort. This weather is causing some delays to loads of milk. Some stakeholders in the Pacific Northwest are redirecting loads of milk to closer produc- tion facilities to reduce the need to dump milk. Class I demand is steady, but Class IV demand is increasing. In the mountain states of Idaho, Utah, and Colorado, farm level milk production is steady to higher. Milk is available to meet production needs in the area, though inclement weather is causing delays to the delivery of some loads. Steady demand is present across all classes. Condensed skim contracts are steady in the West. Cream demand is increasing as processors are resuming busy schedules following some scheduled end of year down time. Cream is available in the region. Contacts report that severe weather and a shortage of truck drivers are causing delays to cream loads. Cattle Market Reports Compiled by USDA Market News Service • Oklahoma City-Des Moines-St. Joseph, Mo.-Moses Lake, Wash. NATIONAL FEEDER AND STOCKER CATTLE (Federal-State Market News) St. Joseph, Mo. Jan. 10 RECEIPTS: This Week Last Week Last Year 312,900 294,000 477,400 No recent price comparison due to the last couple weeks of holiday-shortened receipts, however, there was a higher un- dertone noted from the last fully reported markets. Demand was reported as good to very good depending on how long ago the lat- est local auction had occurred while cattle feeders and order buyers were geared up and ready to buy cattle. As tradition goes, the first full week of the New Year brought a lot of cattle to town. The supply of feeders was heavy with many load lots and big strings of reputation cattle consigned throughout the country. Picking out highlights was difficult as there was a multitude of impressive sales nationwide. On Wednesday at Burwell (NE) Livestock Market, a part load of 808 lb steers sold at 170.00, while on Tuesday at Kingsville (MO) Livestock Auction, three loads of 840 lb steers sold at 166.10. Grazing cattle are still in demand as well. On Wednesday at Green City (MO) Livestock, a half load of 530 lbs steers sold at 214.25 or near $1150.00 per head. The weather has become much more winter like now and the ground has finally frozen up making the ride in the feed truck a rough one. A few locations had minor issues getting cattle out of the country last week but for the most part weather didn’t cause any major transportation issues. The CME Cattle Complex suffered losses this week with the front month February Live contract being 2.375 lower on the week. The Feeder Cattle contracts experienced even further losses with the soon-expiring January contract 4.775 lower and the March being 3.275 lower for the week. Packers leveraged lighter harvest schedules against the negotiated market and negotiated live trading of fed cattle in the Southern Plains sold steady to 2.00 lower from the previous week at 136.00 to 138.00, while dressed sales in Nebraska sold steady to 2.00 lower at 220.00. Cutout prices saw an uptick in prices this week even with slaughter curtailed somewhat. Choice boxed beef closed the week 6.56 higher at 271.82, while Select was 2.87 higher at 261.10 for the same pe- riod. Weekly Cattle Slaughter under federal inspection estimated at 620K for the week, 83K more than last week, and 32K less than a year ago. Auction volume this week included 60 percent weighing over 600 lbs and 40 percent heifers.
