As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers sold 2.00 to 8.00 lower. Trade was fairly active on moderate demand. Unseasonable warm temperatures for this time of the year, but a cold front pushing through this weekend with a slight chance of much needed 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.
