Farm Outlook notes cattle slaughter outpacing last year

Cattle weights and herd placements rose, boosting good grade steer receipts and market activity in major markets.

Cattle Market Shifts Show Slower Fed Steer Supply
In early April prime steers priced about 2 pounds lower than a year earlier with a wider price spread. The margin between prime and choice cattle at Chicago in April was roughly 16 cents better than March, aiding fat cattle demand while feeder markets softened. Katish notes heavier feeder cattle moving into feed lots, though total shipments remain about half the year-ago rate, signaling smaller future marketings than last spring and summer.
