Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Based on limited comparisons with the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers 2.00-5.00 higher. Feeder heifers steady to 3.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Demand good. Supply moderate. Definitely felt like the beginning of the fall sale season with cooler temps, lots of bawling calves and increasing price spreads. Several yearling on hand as well including two loads of good mixed colored steers weighing 754-763 lbs

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	1,617	120.70	1,952	15
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,520	114.41	1,739	14

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.
