On Friday, September 20, USDA Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) Livestock, Poultry, and Grain Market News released the new Monthly Oklahoma Retail Feed Cost report. This new report provides producers of all sizes with current price information for the most common feeds and feed ingredients sold at retail feed distributor locations across Oklahoma in bagged and bulk (per ton) form, including organic corn and soy meal. Using this report, small and large producers alike can make more informed purchasing decisions tailored to the needs of their operation. The report will be released monthly and will include feed prices in effect during the month of release.
This new report, developed in partnership with the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, complements the Bi-Weekly Oklahoma Production Cost report that provides current price information on the most common fertilizers and fuels used in farm production.
The first report shows that Bulk Cattle Cubes with 20% protein are priced at $342.71 per ton. Those same cubes in fifty pound bags have a retail price of $10.44 per bag.
Bulk 14% protein creep pellets are on average across Oklahoma priced at $307.57 a ton while those same creep pellets in fifty pound bags are priced at $9.00 per bag.
