As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers 2.00-5.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs 4.00-8.00 higher, over 550 lbs 2.00-4.00 higher. Slaughter cows 7.00-9.00 lower. Demand good. Supply moderate. There were around 900 head of good quality, reputation yearling steers and heifers from 5 consignments this week that drew some extra buying power and generated some impressive price quotes including 124 head of 771 lb steer @255.85 and 35 head of 661 lb steers @285.00. Much needed rain fell throughout the area Sunday and Monday with some pockets of heavy rain.

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

Steers 500–600 lb: high $519.42, low $374.69, median $458.20 across 23 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

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.
