As filed

At Fairview this evening, a large offering of feeder cattle was met with active buyer participation and good demand. An upward trend continued in mid weight steers 400-800lbs, trading 5-7 higher. Heifers of the same weight classes also trading higher 3-6. As compared to a month ago, sub 400lb steers and heifers traded steady with a lower undertone.

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.
