As filed

Compared to two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold 5.00 to mostly 10.00 lower. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Sharply lower trade for the most part this week as the local cash market caught up with the losses experienced in virtually all facets of the beef sector the past couple weeks. Lots of unweaned calves on offer with many facing steeper discounts than have been evident for quite some time. Supply was heavy with demand moderate and weakening late in the day, creating some wide price spreads.

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.
