As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers under 550 lbs 5.00-15.00 lower, over 550 lbs steady to 3.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs 6.00-12.00 lower, over 550 lbs 3.00-6.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady. Demand moderate. Supply moderate. Fewer orders on the seats this week, especially for the lighter cattle, with some buyers out of the market and some just less aggressive. Weather was likely a factor with rain falling and much more expected this week.

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

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	1,704	105.25	1,793	19
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,509	95.85	1,447	12
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,296	95.19	1,233	34
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,027	78.82	809	36

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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Bred Cows	1st/2nd Stage (1-6 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	965	$1,193	9

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.
