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 600–700 lb
8 sales
Steers 600–700 lb: high $446.43, low $391.49, median $409.55 across 8 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.
