As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers traded steady to 5.00 lower. Demand was good on a moderate to heavy supply. A quality offering this week with many drafts of 450lb to 600lb calves that were well sought after throughout the day. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly steady on a moderate supply.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
