Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Based on limited comparisons with last weeks larger offering, feeder steers near steady. Feeder heifers under 500 lbs 2.00-4.00 higher, over 500 lbs steady to 4.00 lower. Slaughter cows 2.00-4.00 higher. Demand good. Supply light. Runs are lighter around the circuit following last weeks big movement of feeders and cows. Variable amounts of much needed rain have fallen over the area in the past week. Corn prices are surging so far this week which is pressuring feeder contracts lower.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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