GREELEY PRODUCERS April 30, 2014
GREELEY, COLO.
About 300 head of slaughter cattle were sold today with the market about $2-3 higher than last week in all classes of cattle. However, the quantity of good to excellent quality cattle was higher than last week as well. Once again, demand for lean cattle was again high, with a lot of overlap in prices between lean and fat, especially apparent with beef cattle. Demand for lean beef slaughter cows ranged from $94.00 -115.00/cwt. Fat beef cows were higher compared to last week, ranging from $103.00-113.50. Holstein slaughter cows were $3-4 higher with lean Holstein cows ranging $83.00-97.50, and fat Holstein cows ranging from 96.50-101.50.  Highlights include excellent quality, smooth fleshed Holstein cows from UT, Ft Lupton, Kersey, and Pierce. First-rate cows, some also from UT, and others from Windsor topped the beef market.
