As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs. 3.00-6.00 lower though quality and weighing conditions not as attractive. Feeders over 600 lbs. 6.00 higher. Slaughter cows 3.00-5.00 lower on limited receipts. No comparison on bulls due to very limited receipts. Trade moderate to active, demand moderate to good.

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.
