As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers traded mostly 4.00 to 6.00 lower with spots down to 10.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 600lbs traded 2.00 to 6.00 lower and heifers over 600lbs had little to compare to last week. Some quality groups of wean-vac cattle created good demand, but the majority of feeders offered this week were of average or below quality and kept demand moderate. Supply was moderate.

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.
