As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold steady except for those weighing 550-650 lbs selling 5.00-15.00 higher. Heifers sold steady except for the 500-575 lb weight range 10.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good for a moderate supply. A few reputation consignments highlighted the sale and some impressive price levels were achieved with the bounce back in the futures market from the low's a couple weeks ago. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 5.00 higher.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Replacement cattle Per head

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.
