As filed

Compared to last week, heifers 650 lbs and over sold steady to 3.00 higher. Steers and heifers under 650 lbs sold 20.00 higher. Feeder steers, not enough for market test. Boning utility slaughter cows sold 2.00 to 5.00 lower and Lean utility slaughter cows sold steady to 7.00 lower. Very good demand for light to moderate supply. Several of the stocker calves sold today were unweaned.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

32 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $458.54, low $344.43, median $406.52 across 32 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

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.
