As filed

Compared to last week, feeder cattle sold too light to trend on calves and yearling. With breaker and boning cows selling 7.00 to 12.00 higher, with lean cows selling steady on a light test. Slaughter bulls sold on a light test. 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.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $433.70, low $334.13, median $380.56 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
