As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers 2.00-6.00 higher compared to last week on limited receipts both weeks. No accurate comparison on heifers under 500 lbs., offerings over 500 lbs. 5.00-6.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to strong, no comparison on bulls due to very limited receipts. A winter storm limiting receipts again this week with snow and ice limiting cattle work and causing unsafe road conditions. Trade and demand moderate to good considering conditions.

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.
