OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

(1-10-06)Sales: This week: 3,165 Last week: 374 Last Year: 3,200

Compared to last week: Feeder cattle 1.00-3.00 lower.

Demand for feeder cattle moderate. Available pen space

is reduced as large numbers of feeder cattle and calves

being placed in feedlots. No rain has wheat pastures in

tough condition and farmers are forced to move cattle

early. North central Oklahoma received up to 8 inches of

snow over night and what a relief for those areas.

Much of the state is still in desperate need of a hard rain

for some run off water as many ponds are bone dry.

Supply consisted of 96% over 600 lbs. Heifers

comprised 32% of supply.

Unless otherwise stated prices are FOB weigh point

with a 2-3 percent shrink or equivalent and with a 5-10

cent slide on calves and a 3-6 cent slide on yearlings from

base weights. Current sales up to 14 days for delivery.

OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

(3-14-06)

Sales: This week: 4638 Last week: 3428 Last Year: 10665

Compared to last week: Feeder cattle 2.00-3.00 lower.

Feedlot demand moderate at best at these lower levels as

feedlots remain very full. This the last week that cattle

have to be off wheat before the Ides of March(the time

that cattle should be off wheat pasture if the farmer so

chooses to harvest grain) and numbers should slow and

weights are expected to become lighter. Rain is again in

the forecast for the weekend and if this were true would

definitely lighten the spirits of everyone.

Supply consisted of 96% over 600 lbs. Heifers com-

prised 13% of supply.

Unless otherwise stated prices are FOB weigh point

with a 2-3 percent shrink or equivalent and with a 5-10

cent slide on calves and a 3-6 cent slide on yearlings from

base weights. Current sales up to 14 days for delivery.

OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

(4-7-06)

Sales: This week: 1660 Last week: 3975 Last Year: 6750

Compared to last week: Feeder cattle steady to 1.00

lower. Demand moderate as market continues to tumble.

Feeder cattle supplies are limited, however few cattle

remain and some of these would rather choose to wait for

an improved market.

Spring storms are moving across the state and bringing

some much needed rain, however when it comes to the

wheat it may be too late. Some wheat pastures are begin-

ning to head out but with very little growth so grain pro-

duction could be light.

Supply consisted of 90% over 600 lbs. Heifers

comprised 42% of supply.

Unless otherwise stated prices are FOB weigh point

with a 2-3 percent shrink or equivalent and with a 5-10

cent slide on calves and a 3-6 cent slide on yearlings from

base weights. Current sales up to 14 days for delivery.

OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

(4-18-06)

Sales: This week: 5128 Last week: 960 Last Year: 10,100

Compared to last week: Very limited trade last week

but few sales of steers steady. Limited comparison of

heifers 4.00 lower. Demand improved late in the trading

period but only as numbers have declined. Wheat pasture

stress is at an all time high as temperatures have soared

to near 100 degrees.

As hope for a harvest has diminished farmers are even

wondering if there will be enough wheat to even bale.

Temperatures are expected to be back in the 70's by mid-

week but with very limited rainfall.

Supply consisted of 100% over 600 lbs. Heifers

comprised 12% of supply.

Unless otherwise stated prices are FOB weigh point

with a 2-3 percent shrink or equivalent and with a 5-10

cent slide on calves and a 3-6 cent slide on yearlings from

base weights. Current sales up to 14 days for delivery.

OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

Compared to last week: Feeder cattle 1.00-3.00 higher

erate as many buyers continue to pick up previously con-

tracted cattle. Numbers are beginning to dwindle.

Country is greening up nicely after two weeks of on and

off rains. Southeastern Oklahoma reporting up to 8

inches of rain falling in that time period.

This has sparked new interest in grass pasture cattle,

however numbers of this are limited.

comprised 16% of supply.

Unless otherwise stated prices are FOB weigh point

with a 2-3 percent shrink or equivalent and with a 5-10

base weights. Current sales up to 14 days for delivery.

OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

(8-1-06)

Sales: This week: 740 Last week: 3827 Last Year: 5085

Compared to last week: Feeder cattle lightly tested.

Supplies limited as many cattle have been moved off of

parched grasses. Supplies also lighter as bids have

reduced and sellers not interested in doing business at

this level. Country remains extremely dry and hot, though

this is not the hottest summer. We currently sit with an

average state temperature that ranks the seventh

warmest temp.

Supply consisted of 100% over 600 lbs. Heifers com-

prised 28% of supply. Unless otherwise stated prices

are FOB weigh point with a 2-3 percent shrink or equiva-

lent and with a 5-10 cent slide on calves and a 3-6 cent

slide on yearlings from base weights. Current sales up to

14 days for delivery.

OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

(8-15-06)

Sales: This week: 2700 Last week: 2137 Last Year: 4565

Compared to last week: Feeder cattle and calves in the

direct trade not well tested. Good demand for very light

supplies. Most yearling cattle have been moved off of

parched grasses. Calves are moving earlier than normal

but are mostly selling through sale barns. Country

remains generally dry and hot although many areas of the

state received light to moderate rain Monday night.

Ranchers continue to be concerned with shortages of

grass, water and hay.

Supply consisted of 100% over 600 lbs. Heifers

comprised 14% of supply.

Unless otherwise stated prices are FOB weigh point

with a 2-3 percent shrink or equivalent and with a 5-10

cent slide on calves and a 3-6 cent slide on yearlings from

base weights. Current sales up to 14 days for delivery.

OKLAHOMA H AY(9/28/06)

ALFALFA HAY: Alfalfa hay prices are steady to firm andmovement is active. Producers at this time are opting for otherforages due to lower cost available with grass, millet and peahay. Livestock producers at this time are dealing with lowerfuel cost making transportation more feasible for haymovement.

GRASS HAY: Grass hay movement is moderate to active andprices are firm to higher. Producers in some areas are startingcattle with the hope that Mother Nature will soon send somerain for the early wheat plantings. Parts of north centralOklahoma continue to be drought stricken leaving large areasof the state's wheat belt unplanted. Producers looking for hayto purchase or have hay for sale can access the hay directoryon the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture's website atwww.oda.state.ok.us or call the Oklahoma Department ofAgriculture Hay Hotline at 1-800-580-6543.

OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

(10/31/06)

Sales: This week: 1260 Last week: 670 Last Year: 4300

Compared to last week: Cattle trades in the country

continue very light. Feeder cattle not well test but a defi-

nite lower undertone noted. Grain markets continue to

control the feeder pricing and these levels are still

dropping. Much of the wheat pasture is up but is still

very short and can only handle very light weight cattle.

More rain is needed for further growth in the wheat.

Many heavier weight calves are either headed to the

feedlot or grow yards.

Supply consisted of 100% over 600 lbs. Heifers

comprised 20% of supply.

Unless otherwise stated prices are FOB weigh point

with a 2-3 percent shrink or equivalent and with a 5-10

cent slide on calves and a 3-6 cent slide on yearlings from

base weights. Current sales up to 14 days for delivery.

OKLAHOMA RANGE SALES REPORT

(12/5/06)

Sales This week: 660 Last week: 350 Last Year: 4,450

Compared to last week: Feeder cattle once again lightly

tested and not enough trades to test the trend. The weather

has turned to winter quickly with an ice and snow storm last

week, preceded in some areas by a good rain. This

has resulted in some badly needed moisture but also cold,

wet and windy weather that has stressed cattle and reduced

movement. Supplies of feeder cattle continues to be light and

those available are being held in firm hands. Supply

consisted of 38% over 600 lbs. Heifers comprised 63% of

supply.

Unless otherwise stated prices are FOB weigh point with a

2-3 percent shrink or equivalent and with a 5-10 cent slide on

calves and a 3-6 cent slide on yearlings from base weights.

Current sales up to 14 days for delivery.
