Compared to last week steer calves 500 - 600 lbs were 2.00 to 5.00 higher with a small offering of 650 lb steers selling 10.00 higher and 800 to 900 lb steers sold 4.00 to 9.00 higher. The 500 to 600 lb heifer calves sold 10.00 higher and 700 to 800 lb heifers sold 4.00 higher. The rain the last few days has been a welcome change and should help the grass get caught up. The supply was light to moderate with an active market.

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.
