As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls traded steady. Demand was good on a moderate supply of slaughter animals and a light supply of replacement cattle. Several buyers were ringside looking to pick up some young bred cows and pairs with very few in the offering. A lot of hay is down across the area in anticipation of a week of dry harvest weather.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,402	83.62	1,173	85

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
