As filed

Compared to last Thursday, stocker and feeder cattle steady to firm in a light test. The front month feeder cattle futures market was $3.90 to $4.15 higher on the day and closed just a dime under the session highs. The 11/1 CME Feeder Cattle Index strengthened by 55 cents to $237.80. Slaughter cows weak to 9.00 lower. Most decline on Lean type cows as supply exceeds demand. Market strong on heaviest dairy and beef cows due to short supply. Slaughter bulls firm in a light test. Trade active with moderate demand.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Bulls	—	Low	1,773	117.94	2,091	23
Cows	Premium White 65-75%	Average	1,831	114.00	2,087	6thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	High	1,232	88.78	1,094	376

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
