As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly 5.00-10.00 higher. Demand was good to very good for a moderate supply of quality calves, stockers and yearlings. A nice offering of calves, stockers and yearlings were on hand. At the conclusion of the regular sale, there was an offering of 4 herd dispersals of quality cow/calf pairs, bred cows and breeding bulls.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

25 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $447.60, low $357.18, median $413.34 across 25 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
