It was a sluggish day for the livestock complex as traders elected to take a cautious approach when trading the contracts. No cash cattle trade developed throughout the day and it's likely that trade will be delayed until the second half of the week.

This week features the February WASDE commodity reports and crop production reports, as well as the annual meeting of state Departments of Agriculture. With policy actions often stymied in Washington, these state ag bureaucracies are where a lot of the action is really happening. We'll also see weather take some warmer twists and turns.

What a week it was for the livestock complex! Gains were seen consistently throughout all three of the livestock contracts but the biggest contributing factor to the contracts' upward run was demand. Boxed beef prices were well supported this past week and pork cutout values traded higher too with the hope that more international demand picks up.

Regions See Unique Hay Prices, Supplies

Drought conditions and the amount of available forages have a large effect on hay prices in a region. Many Midwest locations saw drought, some for the second year in a row, and this situation has limited hay supplies and caused prices to rise dramatically. However, some areas received adequate moisture and have ample supplies with less-expensive prices.

Clouds, Fog Helped Reduce Flood Impact

While some areas are already seeing flooding, and much warmer conditions next week will lead to snowmelt and more possible floods in some areas, you can thank the clouds and dense fog, no heavy rain forecast, and continued drought in the Midwest for why the flood situation won't be like 2019.
