As filed

Compared to last week, steers under 700lbs traded steady to 4.00 lower and steers over 700lbs were not well tested. Feeder heifers under 600lbs traded mostly steady to 4.00 lower, and heifers over 600lbs traded steady to 3.00 higher. Supply was light for today's wean vac special with thunderstorms coming into the area this afternoon. Demand 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.
