National Feeder Cattle
Weekly Summary
St. Joseph, Mo.
March 8,2002
Report Supplied By USDA
NATIONAL FEEDER CATTLE SUMMARY for week
ending Mar. 8. Receipts: 157,800 head, last week 158,200,
year ago 196,300. This week’s reported volume included 54
percent weighing over 600 lbs. Compared to last week; feeder
steers and heifers sold steady to 2.00 higher, instances 3.00 to
5.00 higher, according to the USDA Livestock Market News
Service The feeder market received strong support from the
finished trade. Direct feedlot sales, slaughter steers and heif
ers. 2.00 to 2.50 higher at 73.00-73.50 live and 4.00 higher in
the beef at 116.00-117.00. Boxed beef cutouts up 3.00 with
light Choice late in the week at 120.31. This helped packer
margins. However, another week of meager cattle slaughter
of only 637,000 head. April futures closed at 75.87 but June
is down to 70.50. Continued drought conditions in many
areas becoming more serious as we get nearer the spring
grazing and planting season. The dry, very mild open winter
made for a very good calving year, many 95 percent or better
savings. Winter maintenance feeding was usually low and
feedlot cattle made efficient daily gains instead of fighting
the usual winter weather elements. Economists predicted the
recession is drawing to a close and the Dow Jones up nearly
500 points for this week. Prospects for strong consumer beef
demand improving.
