Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs. steady except 500-600 lbs 1.00-4.00 lower. No comparison over 600 lbs. but a lower undertone noted.

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.
