As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady except for a few spots where some 450-500 lb heifers and 700-750 lb steers sold 5.00-10.00 higher. Demand was good for a moderate supply with some reputation groups of calves offered. Finally, West Central Missouri got a nice steady rain Thursday. Slaughter cows sold firm.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $460.56, low $332.17, median $405.00 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.

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.
