As filed

No market trend due to Holiday; however market active for all classes. Very good demand for weaned and yearling packages and high dressing lean cows.

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

34 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $500.70, low $353.17, median $447.02 across 34 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
