As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold sharply higher with nearly all weights enjoying a double digit gain. Slaughter cows 8.00 to 10.00 higher. Really high quality offering this week including several reputation consignments. While certainly not a weak spot, steer cattle over 650 lbs didn't see much advance and traded with a firm undertone, allowing their sisters to narrow the steer to heifer price spread significantly. Supply moderate, demand very good.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
