As filed

Compared to last week, a much lighter offering this week with steer and heifer calves weighing under 600 lbs. selling in mostly small packages and not a good comparison with last week's large offering of top quality calves, a few comparisons of 4 weight steers did sell with a steady to firm undertone with other calves trading with a weak to lower undertone. A pot load of 728 lb. steers off the same consignment as last week weighing near the same sold 5.00 lower. Three pot loads of 650-669 lb. heifers were not tested with last week's scarce offering of heifers weighing over 650 lbs. Demand was moderate to good on a light supply . Slaughter cows 4.00-6.00 lower compared to last week's very active market.

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.
