Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday sale on a light offering; slaughter cows and bulls steady, not enough feeder cows for a market test. Yearlings unevenly steady, with few unweaned calves in the run. Demand moderate. Fall run sales every Tuesday.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $473.36, low $160.00, median $409.98 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

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

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.
