As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers sold on a light test, selling $10.00 to $15.00 lower. Feeder heifers were not tested sufficiently to establish an accurate market trend. Slaughter cattle were also lightly tested and sold mostly steady on good demand.

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
