Compared to last week there was no good comparison on steer or heifer cattle under 650 lbs. Steer cattle 650 to 800 lbs sold 4.00 to 5.00 higher and steers 800 to 900 lbs sold 2.00 to 3.00 lower. On the heifers 650 to 750 lb sold steady and 750 to 900 lb heifers sold 2.00 to 4.00 lower. The receipts were heavy and the demand was moderate to good.

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.
