Monday August 25 the slaughter market dropped dramatically compared to the last weeks strong demand, with most packers complaining of over supply of cows.  This is a situation we have been expecting to come sooner or later and we will see how long it lasts.

 

Yearlings are in fairly short supply and selling at premium prices, better strs/hfrs bringing in the high $.90's to well over $1.00.  Unweaned calves are starting to come to market regularly in increasing volume each week with good quality strs/hfrs bringing in the $.90's to just over $1.00.  Medium to poor and undesirable quaility strs/hfrs are often discounted $.10 to $.20.
