As filed

Compared to last week steers under 450 lbs and over 600 lbs were 2.00 to 10.00 lower with 450 lbs to 600 lbs bringing 7.00 to 9.00 higher. The heifers under 500 lbs there was not enough comparable sales but a lower under tone was noted, heifers over 500 lbs were steady to 2.00 lower with the exception of 550 lb to 650 lb and the 950 lb heifers bringing 5.00 to 10.00 less. There was a heavy supply and the demand was fair.

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.
