As filed

Compared to last weeks sharply higher trade, steer and heifer calves 8.00 to 15.00 lower on limited test, yearlings not well tested. No recent test of Holsteins for a price comparison. Demand moderate to light, supply light. Weather, mud and current market conditions curtailed the receipts.

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.
