Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last report, feeder cattle too light to trend. With boning cows selling steady to 1.00 lower, while breaker and lean cows sold too light to trend, with slaughter bulls selling too light to test. Demand was good with 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.

15 sales

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.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
