As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves sold 2.00 to 7.00 lower; yearlings unevenly steady on limited comparable sales. Trade was active on moderate to good demand. Another cold front expected along with moisture going into the weekend. Slaughter cows and bulls sold with a higher undertone.

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.
