Fluid Milk and Cream — Western U.S.
May 12
Milk output has, reportedly, begun to reach
its peak in California. Contacts report that farm
level production is steady this week. Milk is
available in the state; some processors report
that purchasers from other states, where inven-
tories are tighter, are looking for loads to meet
their current production needs. Some plant
managers say that they are selling spot loads of
milk below Class to nearby facilities due to un-
planned down time. Demand is steady for Class
I and III, while increased ice cream production is
contributing to higher Class II demand.
Farm level milk production is steady to lower
in Arizona, and contacts report that output is
down when compared to this time last year.
Some processing facilities are utilizing milk
loads from other nearby states to fulfi ll local
production needs. Class II and III purchasing is
strong as ice cream and cheese makers in the
state are running busy schedules.
In New Mexico, milk output is steady to lower,
as warm weather in the state is having a nega-
tive impact on cow comfort. Milk continues to
be available in the state, and some handlers are
selling loads to nearby states where milk inven-
tories are tighter. Stakeholders say that labor
shortages continue to cause some processing
plants to run below capacity. Across all Classes,
demand is steady.
Farm level milk output is steady to higher in
the Pacifi c Northwest. Contacts report that milk
production is down year over year. Processing
facilities in the area are running busy schedules,
as milk is available in the area. Spot loads of
milk are available in the area, but some plant
managers say that they are primarily selling
loads locally. Shortages of available tankers and
truck drivers are, reportedly, preventing some
spot sellers from moving large volumes of milk
to other areas.
Steady demand is present across all Classes.
In the mountain states of Idaho, Utah and
Colorado milk production is stable, and milk
inventories are plentiful. Stakeholders say
that spot loads of milk are selling from $3 to
$5 under Class IV. Some deeper discounts are
being off ered for loads of milk that have moved
to the spot market due to unplanned down
time. Some loads of milk are, reportedly, going
to other parts of the country where inventories
are tighter. Class I and III demand is steady,
while Class II demand is trending higher.
In the West, demand for condensed skim is
trending higher. Contacts report that contract
purchasers are buying towards the higher end
of their availability. Demand for cream is steady
as inventories are available throughout the
region to meet current production demands.
Ice cream and butter makers are pulling at
cream inventories as production facilities are
running busy schedules.

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold
uneven; steady to 2.00 higher in the Southeast
and steady to 3.00 lower in the North-Central
and South-Central regions. Good demand
remains for light fl eshed cattle to run on grass
as yearlings as turnout time is now upon us as
the grass is green in growing, while demand is
moderate to good for those cattle bound for
fi nishing yards.
Currently, higher cost of gains makes more
sense for cattle feeders to buy the available
heavier weight cattle.
Corn, protein, and energy sources are the high-
est they have been in years and cattle feeders
want to be prudent in the purchasing decisions
as more times than not; the fi rst cost is the most
important in feeding cattle.
In Missouri, fall calves are showing up in
auctions with smaller bawling groups carrying
a tick of fl esh are much more commonplace this
week. Flesh condition is a very important factor
in determining the value of feeder cattle, and it’s
only amplifi ed even more in year’s where costs
of gain are high. The industry is now moving into
the slow season for marketing cattle at auctions
with the dog days of summer just a few short
weeks away.
A decent week of weather fi nally allowed
farmers to get into fi elds which kept many away
from auctions. Ranchers will start turning their
attention to haying options soon as Memorial
Day is around the corner and many like to have
fi rst cutting started right around that time.
Cold, wet weather or drought conditions will
hamper forage production this year. The cash
fed cattle market is dollars ahead of the current
spot month of June, nearly 12.00, leaving cattle
feeders unsure of where the market is headed
and where it will converge with the futures. The
CME Cattle complex had a rough week with 2022
deferred Feeder Cattle contracts were 6.625 to
7.275 lower and deferred Live Cattle contracts
were 3.000 to 3.75 lower.
The cash fed cattle trade was steady this week
at 140.00 in the Southern Plains, however the
Nebraska dressed trade was 2.00 lower at 230.00.
Choice boxed beef closed the week 4.51 higher
at 258.95, while Select was 1.16 lower at 243.90
for the same period.
Weekly Cattle Slaughter under federal inspec-
tion estimated at 657K for the week, the same as
last week and 13K more than a year ago. Auction
volume this week included 52 percent weighing
over 600 lbs and 47 percent heifers.
