Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers were mostly steady. Holstein steers were mostly steady to 2.00 higher. Slaughter heifers were mostly steady based on a limited comparison. A higher undertone was noted on slaughter bulls and Holstein heifers based on a limited comparison. Slaughter cows were mostly steady. A lighter offering of cattle was noted because of the holiday weekend and favorable weather for farmers to finish much needed field work.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Heifers 0–100 lb: high $311.07, low $220.42, median $245.78 across 26 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
