As filed

Compared to last Thursday: Feeder steers sold fully steady. Feeder heifers traded steady to 4.00 lower and bull calves were 2.00-4.00 higher. The demand was good on all classes of feeder cattle. Slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower and no test on slaughter bulls due to low receipts.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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.
