DTN COMMENTS: Cattle feeding country is rather slow to start this
morning, following the last two days of light business. Northern dressed
deals have been at mostly $353 to $355, $10 to $12 higher than the prior
week's weighted averages. Southern live sales were marked at $230, $6
higher than last week's weighted average basis Kansas. It is looking like
the bulk of business is essentially completed for the week, although we
may see some cleanup trade here and there as the day progresses. Beef
cutouts are expected to be lower with light to moderate box movement.
NOTE: Feedlots are encouraged to call DTN with any cattle sales, at
1-402-461-3561. All sales will be listed anonymously and organized by
state. All live sales are FOB and set for 1-9-day delivery. A weekly
summary from this data will be posted on the Weekly Cattle Sales Reported
to DTN page and will be left up for the entire week for reference
purposes.
