As filed

Compared to the last sale, two weeks ago, slaughter cows and bulls traded 2.00-3.00 higher. Bred cows traded steady and pairs were not well tested. Demand was good on a light supply, which was lighter then expected, due to the heavy rain and muddy condition.

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.
