As filed

Compared to two weeks ago: Stocker and feeder steers sold steady to 3.00 higher. Stocker and feeder heifers sold 3.00 to 6.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower. Slaughter bulls were not well tested. Heavy rainfall in the area was to blame for a lighter run of cattle. Buyer demand was good for pre/vac cattle that sold for a premium while new crop calves were discounted.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
