Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves sold mostly 5.00-15.00 higher, yearlings steady to 10.000 higher. Demand was good for a moderate to heavy supply with several reputation consignments of mostly calves but a few groups of yearling were offered as well. Also, there was good demand for breeding type heifers with a few active buyers for those. Slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $524.49, low $388.35, median $466.90 across 25 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
