As filed

Compared to last week, with all the rain, supply was held back a little more than expected. 400 -600 lb steers and heifers sold $10.00-$15.00 lower on a light test with slightly plainer offerings this week. The largest draft of the day was 70 head of value-added heifers weighing 761lb that sold for 288.50. Demand seemed to be stronger on 6 and 7 weight feeders this week, but comparables from last week were too light to call a trend. Slaughter cattle sold steady on a light test.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

28 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $407.35, low $339.22, median $377.72 across 28 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
