As filed

Compared to last week, feeder cattle sold unevenly steady on calves and yearlings. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady to 1.00 lower on boning cattle, with lean cattle selling 11.00 higher. While slaughter bulls sold too light to trend. Trade was active with a good demand and a light supply.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $483.07, low $384.43, median $425.67 across 22 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
