As filed

Compared to last week, a lighter run didn't offer many true comparison but steers and heifers sold mostly steady. Mostly smaller packages of calves offered with several just off the cow and the males still bulls. Demand was moderate for a light supply. Slaughter cows sold uneven again this week with the boning cows selling steady but the lean and fleshy breaking cows sold 4.00-8.00 lower.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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.
