As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold unevenly steady from 3.00 lower to 4.00 higher. A nice offering today with more quality groups of long weaned cattle than we have seen the past couple weeks. Supply was moderate with many bidders and buyers present and active throughout the day.

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.
