As filed

Compared to two weeks ago, steers over 750 lbs sold steady to 4.00 lower and heifers over 800 lbs sold steady to 6.00 lower. A trend will not be given for the bawling calves as this is the first big run of the season. Demand was moderate to good from the buyers in the crowd.

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.
