As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls were steady. Demand was very good on a light supply. The top slaughter bull sold for 221.00/cwt. and the top slaughter cow sold for 176.00/cwt. Top bred cows sold for 4250.00/head and the top pairs sold for 5050.00/pairs. Some much needed rain as well as warmer temperatures have gotten the Ozarks in full bloom. Demand for bred cows and stockers continues to grow as pastures get closer to full production.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
