As filed

Compared to last week: Trade activity and demand good on slaughter cows and bulls. Trade activity and demand on feeder cattle good on long weaned steers and heifers, moderate on unweaned calves. No comparable trades from last week's report. Crossbred dairy heifers weighing over 1000 lbs sold mostly 1.00 to 4.00 higher. Average dressing slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 3.00 lower. This auction market will start selling the calves on their normal Friday feeder cattle auction starting next week. The next available report will be Thursday, September 8, 2022.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
