As filed

Compared to last week, with several offerings of weaned calves demand was good while demand was held back on unweaned calves partly due to a very hot weather forecasted for the next 10 days. Feeder steers sold $6.00 dollars higher, while feeder heifers sold $7.00 higher with a stronger demand on light weights. Slaughter cattle sold $6.00 lower on a lighter demand this week.

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.
