As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers 2.00-10.00 lower. Feeder heifers 4.00-10.00 lower. Slaughter cows 3.00-7.00 lower. Slaughter bulls 2.00 lower. Quality was average to plain. All classes of cattle were softer. Fleshy new crop calves made up the majority of the offering. Very few larger cattle. Dry conditions and the normal October temperature swings have slowed buyer participation.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
