As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers under 700 6.00-14.00 higher, over 700 lbs 2.00-4.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs 6.00-18.00 higher, few over 600 lbs steady to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 2,00-4.00 higher. Demand very good. Supply moderate. Several consignments of nice grazing cattle again this week weighing 375-675 lbs. The fundamentals of supply and demand continue to move the feeders higher with an additional push in recent days from lower trending corn futures.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
