As filed

Compared to last Thursday, not enough stocker or feeder cattle this week for accurate trends. Feeder cattle futures closed mixed, with front months down 17 cents to $1.37 and deferreds 5 to 25 cents higher. The CME Feeder Cattle Index was back up 4 cents on September 1 to $329.18. Slaughter cows firm to 5.00 higher. Slaughter bulls weak in a light test. Trade active with very good demand.

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 $553.41, low $379.52, median $464.29 across 16 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
