Compared to the last market test two weeks ago, feeder steers traded 1.00 to 4.00 higher with spots up to 7.00 higher on 750lb steers. Feeder heifers under 600lbs traded steady to 2.00 lower and heifers over 600lbs traded 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Several quality groups of steers were included in the offering this week. Demand was very good on a moderate supply of feeder cattle.

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.
