SJ_LS850 St. Joseph, MO Fri Aug 17, 2018 USDA-MO Dept of Ag Market News NATIONAL FEEDER & STOCKER CATTLE SUMMARY – WEEK ENDING 08/17/2018 RECEIPTS: Auctions Direct Video/Internet Total This Week 157,200 53,700 7,100 210,300 Last Week 158,200 73,000 231,700 462,900 Last Year 148,900 41,500 0 190,400 Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 3.00 lower. Year-to-Date auction receipts on this report are 7.7 percent larger than the previous five year average even though receipts had tracking at a lower pace than a year ago. June and July this year have wiped out any decline that usually would've been ho-hum for receipts during the summertime. Drought conditions culminating in low water levels and poor hay production would be the major culprit in motivating producers to sell cattle at this time year. Not only are feeders making their way to town as well, but mature cattle as well. Producers are trying to hold cow herds together that they have spent generations improving genetics. With the generation interval being so long on cattle, breeding improvements take a considerable amount of time. Missouri is the epicenter of drought in the Midwest as parts of the state have had very hot and dry weather in recent weeks and months, and some parts have been dry for the last year or longer. As of the latest report near 98 percent of the state is showing on the drought monitor. Ratings continue to worsen each week and there is now 5.5 percent that has been designated in the exceptional (D4) category which is the highest or worst rating. Approximately 30 percent of cattle inventory is within an area that is experiencing drought. Forages were dormant in central Missouri, leaving producers to feed hay or find other food sources. According to August 12 USDA reports, 45% of the corn crop, 37% of the soybean crop, and 76% of the pasture and rangeland in Missouri were in poor to very poor condition, and 79% of the topsoil and 80% of the subsoil was short or very short of moisture. Conversely to that, most of the South was wetter and cooler than normal this week. Heavy rain fell from central Texas to southeast Oklahoma and much of Arkansas and reports of 4 inches or more of rainfall were common. The Panhandles of OK and TX have received some recent rainfall and are priming to plant wheat as soon as the calendar gets closer to September. Producers are needing to have good wheat emergence followed by timely rains so stocking rates of wheat pasture can get back to a normal year. Northern Plains dressed sales occurred on Friday mid-day at 173.00, mostly 2.00 lower than last week. Southern Plains trading has not occurred yet as of this writing and the lower trade up North will more than likely put pressure on other areas to accept lower money. Packers still need to buy fed cattle but it appears that inventory is plentiful enough that competition for fed cattle is lacking. Fed cattle supplies through August and September should remain plentiful and at this time there seems to be limited positive news to encourage CME cattle futures and interest in moving the fed cattle market higher. The CME Cattle Complex stumbled out of the gate on Monday with follow through selling from last week's lower trend. On Tuesday, Live Cattle gained some momentum as a dabble of cash trading occurred at a price higher than expected. For the week, Live Cattle contracts were 1.00 to 1.62 higher, while Feeder Cattle were 1.05 to 2.38 higher. Boxed-beef prices have moved higher but have not provided a significant boost for the cattle feeder. Compared to last Friday, Choice closed the week 5.32 higher at 211.38 and Select closed 2.83 higher at 200.92, putting the Choice-Select spread at 10.46. Auction volume this week included 48 percent weighing over 600 lbs and 39 percent heifers.
