As filed

Compared to the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers steady to 2.00 higher with advance over 650 lbs. Feeder heifers under 500 lbs 1.00-4.00 lower, over 500 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. Slaughter cows 2.00-3.00 lower. Demand moderate to good. Supply heavy. Good quality offering with several nice yearlings weighing 650-800 lbs. Also several new crop calves in the mix which still find some demand if the quality is there although we're about to the point where the lesser quality or big fat bawlers find lots of resistance.

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.
