Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Not enough comparable sales on steers or heifers for a market trend but a lower undertone was noted. However, quality was a little plainer than a week ago, which accounted for some of the decline noted on prices. Trading activity was moderate on moderate buyer demand. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly 1.00 to 4.00 higher. Both Live and Feeder Cattle futures were sharply lower today following a brief jump yesterday.

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

Steers 500–600 lb: high $516.73, low $362.24, median $424.07 across 30 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
