As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers traded mostly 2.00 to 5.00 lower, feeder heifers trended 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Not enough slaughter cows and bulls were viewed to develope a trend. Feeder cattle supply was light and demand was good.

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.
