As filed

Compared to last week, breaking type slaughter cows were 2.00 to 3.00 lower and boning type slaughter cows were 5.00 to 6.00 lower, while slaughter bulls were 6.00 to 7.00 higher. There were too few comparable feeder steers and bulls to establish an adequate market comparison; feeder heifers were mostly 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Demand was mostly moderate, very good for value added feeder steers and heifers; market activity and buyer interest were moderate. Offerings of cattle were mostly moderate. Cattle quality was average.

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.
