No trend due to no sale last week. Quality was average to plain. Slaughter cattle are still in high demand . All classes of feeder cattle had a strong market. Next Thursday will be the third Thursday stock cow special.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

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.
