As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves sold fully steady; yearlings not well tested in previous week's sale. Trade was fairly active on good demand. Wide price spreads this time of year in conditioned cattle vs their non-weaned counterparts continued this week along with large swings in temperatures. Slaughter cows and bulls traded steady.

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.
