As filed

Compared to last week , on a light test there was a lower undertone on calves under 650 lbs. Steers 750 to 850 lbs. sold 2.00 higher and 900 lb. steers sold 6.00 higher. The heifers under 700 lbs. there were too few for a good test. Heifers over 750 lbs. sold 5.00 higher. The receipts were light due to a special calf sale scheduled for next week and producers being in the middle of harvest and planting.

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.
