As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers traded steady under 500lbs, and 8.00 to 12.00 lower weighing over 500lbs. Feeder heifers traded 2.00 to 10.00 lower. Smaller groups of lower quality feeder cattle created an uneven demand 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.
