A nice run of cattle today. Guys are continuing to put together some of these small packages with hopes of taking them to grass in the coming months. Compared to last week 650 to 700 lb steers sold steady, while 700 to 800 lb steers sold 6.00 to 9.00 higher, and 800 to 900 lb steers sold mostly 2.00 higher. 900 to 950 lb steers sold 1.00 lower. Heifers 500 to 650 lbs sold 3.00 to 4.00 higher and 650 to 750 lb heifers sold steady to 2.00 higher. The receipts were moderate and the demand was 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.
