A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
This barn's trailing prices 500–600 lb
9 sales
Heifers 500–600 lb: high $470.19, low $382.75, median $430.00 across 9 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
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.
Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
