As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers steady to 5.00 higher with advance from 550-650 lbs. Feeder heifers 3.00-12.00 higher. Slaughter cows 4.00-6.00 higher. Demand good to very good. Supply moderate. The supply and demand setup continues to be very much in the sellers favor. The calves flagged as unweaned were from a larger consignment and also carrying some hair which is an issue with summer heat and humidity suddenly upon us.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $516.16, low $414.87, median $480.03 across 20 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
