As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers under 600lbs sold mostly steady and weights over 600lbs were not well tested. Mostly drafts of calves this week with fewer yearlings in the offering. Demand was good on a moderate supply.

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.
