Cattle Summary
Oklahoma City, OK
Wed Aug 19, 1998
USDA-OK Dept Ag Market News
Compared to last week: Feeder cattle
steady to 1.00 lower. Steer calves steady.
Heifer calves steady to 1.00 higher.
Demand moderate for all classes. Quality
plain to average, few attractive calves.
Feeder cattle in mostly medium flesh
with average to full weigh-ups.
Calves in medium to fleshy conditions.
Early August thunderstorm trend has dis
sipated and Oklahoma has relumed to hot
and dty weather pattern that has typified
bulk of the growing season Central and
southern Oklahoma remain in very poor
grazing condition with little to no hope for
recovery this season. Main concern at this
point is moisture for working wheat
ground. The roller coaster movement in the
CME cattle futures has again dampened
buyers spirits. Slaughter cows steady to
1.00 higher. Slaughter bulls steady.
Demand moderate from packers. Rains
have returned to south Texas causing light
er Texas cow runs and improved demand
from southern buyers. However, ample
supplies locally has diminished that
demand. Out of state country buyers remain
aggressive for stock cow numbers. Total of
1,050 cows and bulls sold with 70 percent
to packers. Receipts this week 11,534; last
week 8,756; last year 9,377. Supply con
sisted of 62 percent yearlings over 600 lbs;
29 percent calves under 600 lbs; 9 percent
cows and bulls. Prices follow with weight
ed average weight and price in parenthesis.
