Compared to last week, feeder steers were 10.00 to 50.00 higher. Feeder heifers were 10.00 to 40.00 higher. Slaughter cows were 10.00 to 15.00 higher. Slaughter bulls were 10.00 to 14.00 higher. A very nice set of lighter weight group value added calves were offered this week which topped several weight classes of calves this week.

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

Steers 500–600 lb: high $468.96, low $327.18, median $405.60 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.

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.

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.
