Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves mostly 8.00 to 10.00 higher, instances of 15.00 higher. Feeder steers and heifers 2.00 to 6.00 higher. Quality was mostly attractive. Trading activity and demand were very good. Cooler temperatures and spotty evening showers have moved across much of the area over the past week, but much of the Southern Panhandle is still reporting short to very short soil moisture.

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.
