A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
Nothing removed and nothing rounded — the same lots as the USDA report, with per-head values added. Grouped by class and set lightest first; USDA files them in sale-ring order.

Nebraska weighted averages
One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Nebraska auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
No comparison, due to no feeder sale. Demand was good to moderate.
