As filed

Compared to last sale: Feeders steers traded mostly 3.00 to 7.00 higher with the exception of those weighing between 650-700 lbs trading 3.50 lower. Feeder heifers did not have enough comparisons for an accurate market trend. Average dress slaughter cows traded steady to 2.00 higher and average dress slaughter bulls traded steady. The next available report will occur as receipts warrant.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
