Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Following a one-week interruption due to winter weather, receipts were limited. Snow and ice remain on many secondary roads and in pasture areas, making it difficult for producers to market cattle. With the light supply and no sale reported the previous week, price trends could not be established.

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

Steers 500–600 lb: high $491.70, low $356.79, median $419.66 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
