SJ_LS850 St. Joseph, MO Fri Oct 12, 2018 USDA-MO Dept of Ag Market News NATIONAL FEEDER & STOCKER CATTLE SUMMARY – WEEK ENDING 10/12/2018 RECEIPTS: Auctions Direct Video/Internet Total This Week 195,000 32,500 6,100 233,600 Last Week 249,600 47,600 39,200 336,400 Last Year 254,500 32,300 900 287,700 Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold 1.00 to 5.00 lower, except for the North Central area sold weak to 2.00 higher. Demand was reported as mostly moderate to good nationwide this week as buyer were willing to take on inventory. Consignment sheets were curtailed this week as moisture fell nationwide with some areas of Missouri receiving 8-10 inches of rain. Poor travel conditions in Nebraska and South Dakota after rain and snow in some areas left back country roads impassable. Significant flooding has occurred in the Midwest and the swollen Mississippi River north of St Louis are making grain shipments difficult as well. Limited receipts from the Carolinas and Florida this week due to Hurricane Michael's path from the Gulf to the Northeast. Health concerns are the biggest factor with the big temperature swings this time of year. Last week, temperatures were in the 80's, while lows in the 30's and 40's followed just a few days later. These big fall temperature swings coupled with wet weather and mud can create health issues in a hurry for new owners of feeders. Extensive preweaning and vaccination programs enacted by producers are sought after by buyers. A special yearling sale on Monday in Valentine, Nebraska saw almost 5K head on hand to sell. A load of 901 lb steers sold at 164.85 or $1,485.00 per head without any trucking on them to the feedyard. Also, a short load of 900 lb heifers sold at 152.50 on the same day. Their calf special at that location on Thursday sold two loads of steers averaging 575 lbs at 200.50. The CME Cattle complex struggled this week to move the market higher and the Live Cattle contracts were 1.48 to 2.12 lower on the week. Weakness in the Feeder Cattle futures realm was pronounced on Friday as the daily trend was 1.57 to 2.12 lower. For the week, the front 5 months of Feeder Cattle futures were 3.07 to 4.62 lower. Compared to last week, live sales in the Southern Plains sold steady again at 111.00. Dressed sales in Nebraska sold at mostly 174.00, 1.00 lower than last week. This is the fifth consecutive week that live sales in the Southern Plains sold at mostly 111.00. Feedyard managers were anticipating an early fall bounce they typically experience; they are just waiting on when. Fed Cattle prices normally have upside potential this time of year, however muddy pen conditions in all major feeding regions have left many fed cattle owners willing sellers at steady money recently. Dressed steer weights hit the 900 lb mark for week ending September 29, 2018; four weeks sooner than last year and three weeks later than 2016. Actual cattle slaughter the first three full weeks after Labor Day averaged almost 647K; over 7 percent more than the previous 3-year average. For the week, Choice cutout closed 0.54 lower at 202.71, while Select was 0.54 higher at 192.28. Auction volume this week included 38 percent weighing over 600 lbs and 41 percent heifers.
