As filed

Compared to last week it was a really light run on calves, not enough to call a trend on calves. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 3 higher.

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

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $365.05, low $310.94, median $333.55 across 3 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
