Fluid Milk and Cream — Western U.S.
June 30
Farm level milk production is unchanged this
week in California, though contacts report that
output is down compared to this time last year.
Milk is available for processing in the state. Some
stakeholders say that they are sending loads
of milk to nearby states where inventories are
tighter. Class I demand is steady. Demand for Class
II and III is lower this week as some production
facilities are preparing for the upcoming holiday
weekend.
In Arizona milk production continues to
decline, following seasonal trends. Some plant
managers report that additional loads of milk
have become available as some production
facilities have planned downtime for the July
4th holiday. Reduced food service demand for
Class I is also contributing to increased availability
in the state. Demand for Class II and Class III is
steady to lower. Warm weather in New Mexico is
having a negative impact on cow comfort and is
contributing to decreased milk output. Contacts
report that milk production is down compared to
last year, and this is contributing to some tighter
availability. Some plant managers say that they
are sourcing loads of milk from nearby states.
Demand is steady across all Classes.
Milk production is steady to higher in the Pacifi c
Northwest but is down year over year. Contacts
report that cold and rainy weather has been
having a negative impact on output throughout
June, but that they had some nice, warmer
temperatures throughout the last week. Demand
for Class I and II are steady to lower, while Class III
demand is unchanged.
In the mountain states of Idaho, Utah, and
Colorado, milk output is steady. Spot loads of milk
are available for processing, and some contacts
report interest from purchasers in nearby states.
Demand is lower from some production facilities
with planned downtime for the upcoming
holiday. Due to this, Class II and III is steady to
lower. Demand for both condensed skim and
cream has declined this week as some production
facilities in the region are preparing for a long
holiday weekend.
Contacts say that they expect strong demand
to return for cream in the coming weeks as butter
makers are keen to build inventories. Cream has
become more available for spot purchasing.
Cream multiples are unchanged from last week.

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold
2.00 to 5.00 higher. The supply of feeders was light
to moderate. Heat continued to impact market
receipts, although this is typical as this is generally
the slower time of the year for marketing. There
will be a few special sales over the next few weeks
as barns hold special yearling sales for back-
grounders that retain ownership to this point or
put together loads of cattle to make some heavier
weight yearlings to hit the market specifi cally at
this time knowing supplies are light.
Demand for yearlings is good, calf demand
depends hugely on condition and health risk.
Perhaps not as extreme as it is when the fall
temperature swings occur, but extreme heat is
also a huge risk to cattle and not conducive to
easy weight gain.
Cattle on Feed Report was released Friday after-
noon with On Feed at 102 percent; Placements at
98 percent. Marketings were 102 percent.
The June 1 On Feed number is the largest since
the series started in 1996 and the fi fth month in a
row with the largest on feed for the data series.
Negotiated cash fed cattle trade in the Nebraska
continues to be at the forefront of the market
with the bulk of live sales trading steady to 3.00
higher at 145.00 to 150.00, while the dressed
sales there were 4.00 higher at 234.00. Live sales
in the Southern Plains were reported at mostly
137.00 unevenly steady to 3.00 lower than the
previous week.
Boxed-beef prices leveled off somewhat this
week. Choice boxed beef closed the week 1.28
lower at 264.98, while Select was 1.51 lower at
245.02 for the same period.
Weekly Cattle Slaughter under federal inspec-
tion estimated at 666K for the week, 1K less than
last week and 6K more than a year ago. Auction
volume this week included 50 percent weighing
