As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers under 550 lbs 3.00-5.00 higher, 550-750 lbs steady to 2.00 higher and a few over 750 lbs 1.00-2.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 500 lbs steady to 3.00 higher, 500-600 lbs 3.00-5.00 lower and over 600 lbs unevenly steady. Slaughter cows steady. Demand uneven. Supply moderate. Fall feeder contracts in the 155.00/cwt area continue to lend strength to the light and mid-weight cattle. The feedlot trade is once again at 114.00/cwt this week which is a major frustration as there is several dollars worth of slack in fed prices built up during the backlog that sellers can't get a hold of until captive and overall supplies of market ready cattle are reduced and we can't sell the heavier cattle very well until feeders are able to capture a larger share of their end product.

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.
