Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves traded steady to 4.00 higher with spots 6.00 higher. Demand was good on a light supply. The quality of the offering was above average and was presented in small drafts averaging 3.85 head/draft. Even though muddy conditions continue across the area, Spring Turkey Season in both Missouri and Arkansas contributed to the light supplies.

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.
