NATIONAL FEEDER & STOCKER CATTLE SUMMARY - WEEK ENDING 04/26/2025
RECEIPTS: Auctions Direct Video/Internet Total
This Week: 154,100 22,900 15,900 192,900
Last Week: 168,300 32,000 52,100 252,400
Year Ago: 165,000 68,200 11,300 244,500
Compared to last week, steers and heifers in the North Central area sold 6.00 to
10.00 higher, while those in other areas sold 1.00 to 5.00 higher. Demand was good
to very good on light to moderate auction receipts this week. As the calendar turns
to May, heavy rains in some areas once again limited auction volume and auctions in
the North Central area already moving to auctions every other week, some limiting of
auction numbers will be at the forefront of the market in the coming months. Many
stocker calves during this time of the year would be calves coming directly off the
cows and buyers were still willing to gobble up those offerings at handsome prices as
those prices hover around record breaking levels. There is an abundance of moisture
in some areas of the country as some areas have received over 5 inches of rain
recently. The latest drought monitor is showing a significant improvement with just
over 40 pct of the country not in a drought, the first time since August 2024 and
with several rain occurrences happening nationwide, there will be more areas with
grass eager for more sunshine and warmer weather. With more grass growth and
improving pasture conditions, producers will consider keeping more heifers back for
replacements. Planting has been slow due to rains which seem to be spaced just right
to prevent many fields from drying enough to get over. As of the start of last week
12 percent of corn and 8 percent of beans had been planted. Continued optimism is in
the livestock sector as cash fed cattle register record level prices and futures
prices for feeder cattle top 290.00 and on the way to 300.00. The Live Cattle
futures contracts have been at a discounted level to the cash markets for so long in
the northern plains, now with the summer months coming and those contract months are
204.00 to 208.00, there is great hope that the basis will stay positive. The current
cash market is now 15.00 to 20.00 higher than where the April contract was all winter
long. The cattle bought during the winter look to make so much more money than what
was projected at the time they were placed. The feeder cattle market continues to
rise to levels that many thought weren't possible. We are now entering the time of
year where feeder cattle supplies become limited, and cattle feeders want to get
cattle bought now. Negotiated sales of fed cattle in Kansas sold steady to 3.00
higher at 210.00 to mostly 213.00. In TX/OK/NM, live sales sold 2.00 to 4.00 higher
at 212.00. In Nebraska, live sales were 4.00 to 6.00 higher at 218.00, while dressed
sales sold 3.00 to 8.00 higher at 340.00 to 343.00. For the week, Choice Boxed beef
closed on Friday at 336.48, 4.96 higher and Select closed at 320.11, 4.56 higher.
Weekly Cattle Slaughter under federal inspection estimated at 555K, 21K less than
last week and 59K less than a year ago. Auction volume this week included 55 percent
weighing over 600 lbs and 42 percent heifers.
