Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves traded mostly steady with spots 4.00 higher. There were too few yearlings last week for an adequate comparison, however undertones were steady to firm. Demand was good on a moderate supply. Showers across parts of the area brought cooler temperatures and lower humidity and have improved pasture conditions for those lucky enough to receive the moisture.

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.
