As filed

Compared to last Thursday: Feeder steers under 500 lbs. sold 7.00-9.00 higher and those over 500 lbs. were 7.00-9.00 lower. Today's offering lacked the large packages of the heavier steers that the previous week's sale contained. Feeder heifers traded 3.00-5.00 higher. Despite the very warm temperatures in place the demand for feeders remained good. Slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower and slaughter bulls traded mostly steady.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $420.49, low $314.93, median $390.68 across 33 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

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.
