* Final Report *

* Note * Next Thursday July 28th, Pratt Livestock will have their Hall of Fame Auction expecting 4500-5000 head.

Compared to last week, feeder steers 500 lb to 950 lb sold 4.00 to 9.00 lower. Feeder heifers 500 lb to 1000 lb sold 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Outstanding offering of feeder heifers. Not enough steer and heifer calves under 500 lb for a market test. Demand was moderate on the steers and good on the heifers. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 12.00 to 13.00 lower.

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.
