As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers under 500 lbs 10.00-15.00 higher, over 500 lbs 3.00-10.00 higher. Feeder heifers 3.00-12.00 higher. Slaughter cows 2.00 higher. Demand very good. Supply light. The feeder track continues to get faster, fueled this week by another round of higher fed cattle sales along with a lower trending corn trade.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	High	1,705	108.87	1,856	14
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,554	92.57	1,438	6thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	1,148	77.31	887	7thin

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.

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.
