Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to this same sale last week, all feeder classes sharply lower due in part to the downturn of the futures market but the slaughter cow/bull market remained steady.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $415.50, low $323.99, median $387.47 across 34 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
