As filed

Compared to the previous auction from two weeks ago, steer and heifer calves sold mostly steady, spots 5.00-10.00 higher on heifers under 550 lbs. Too few yearlings to establish a good trend. Bulk of the receipts calves. The demand for calves remains very good as buyers have plenty of cheap feed along with the expectations of continuing tight supplies. Weather has quickly turned dry with no precipitation over the past month and none in the forecast. Pastures have turned brown and the later planted corn and soybeans are prematurely dying.

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.
