Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No recent price comparison on feeder cattle over the last several weeks to offer a solid price comparison, but a firm to higher undertone noted on feeders mostly weighing 500-700 lbs. Several consignments of thin fleshed/gaunt yearling heifers weighing 600-700 lbs sold with good demand. Slaughter cows sold steady to firm. Demand was moderate to good with supply moderate.

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