Compared to last weeks close: Feeder and Stocker cattle closed the week mostly 6.00-10.00 lower. Slaughter cows closed steady to 4.00 lower. Slaughter bulls closed 2.00-3.00 lower. Higher temperatures and increased heat index placed a damper on livestock movement this week which decreased auction receipts. Additionally, demand was moderate at best for feeder and stocker cattle this week due to the volatility in the CME futures.

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.

Source: USDA AMS, as filed — nothing recomputed and nothing rounded. This summary aggregates the same sales the Arkansas barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
