As filed

As compared to the last market: the feeder calf market was strong, had several farmers in buying rye grass calves. So my feeder steers were off 5.00-10.00 but my heifers were steady. Slaughter cattle sold steady as well.

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

29 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $493.97, low $337.72, median $436.36 across 29 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

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

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Average	1,679	182.02	3,056	5thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,264	158.92	2,009	8thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,177	130.60	1,537	9thin

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
