Manhattan, KS Mon Jun, 08 2026 Kansas Weekly Cattle Auction Summary Weighted Average Report for 6/01/2026 Current Previous Year Ago —————————— —————————— —————————— Total 2472 2879 5413 Feeder Cattle 1666 2230 4732 Slaughter Cattle 626 524 511 Replacement Cattle 180 125 170 Compared to last week, steers and heifers not well tested except steers over 800 lbs sold 4.00 to 8.00 higher. Supply light again this week. Demand was moderate to good. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 4.00 lower. Compared to last week, limited trading of Kansas negotiated fed cattle sold unevenly steady at 256.00 to 258.00. In the hay market, demand remained strong this past week as much of the state continues to experience drought conditions. Scattered storms brought limited relief to some areas; however, hay demand remains elevated. Tight inventories combined with strong demand have pushed prices substantially higher. According to the US Drought Monitor for the week of May 21st, in the High Plains Region, temperatures were above normal across much of the region this week, with average readings ranging from the low 40s along the Canadian border and in the mountains to the mid-70s across southern Kansas.
