As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows sold steady, and slaughter bulls were steady to 2.00 higher. A big run of bred cows and bred heifers this week made up the majority of the sale. Demand was good on a moderate supply.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
