As filed

Compared to last week, feeder cattle were lightly tested, with stronger demand noted. Comparable sales sold sharply higher than the previous week, although receipts were too light to establish a trend. Slaughter cows sold steady, while slaughter bulls sold $5.00 to $10.00 lower.

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
