Iowa State College economist Francis Kutish surveyed range country buyers and sellers to compare fall delivery values for feeder cattle and sheep. Buyers stay conservative around 25 to 28 per hundred for yearlings, with some at 30, while sellers push toward 34 to 40 for yearlings and 25 to 27 for lambs. A mix of sales and bids shows wide gaps, though recent rains uplift light stock prices. Kansas City notes rising light stocker prices as market activity nears fall.
Wise Burroughs reports at Iowa State College that feeding chopped cornstalks with grass silage can reduce winter feeding costs for yearling steers by up to 17 dollars per head versus hay and silage. The mix lowers total grass silage and hay needs, boosting meadow pasturing. An experiment at Castana showed 138 pounds gain per steer in 139 days with corn stalks and silage, aided by mineralized soybean meal and molasses.
Kutish believes a normal seasonal price drop in feeder cattle is likely this year but the timing remains unknown. He cautions against buying ahead of the drop unless a genuinely good buy presents itself.
