Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly steady on limited comparable sales. Trade activity and buyer demand were moderate. Severe thunderstorms moved across the Northern and Central Panhandle on Monday night, bringing some much needed rain to the region.

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.
