Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers sold unevenly steady. Markets started the week with a higher undertone as many auctions reported feeder steers and heifers 4.00 to 8.00 higher, with instances of 12.00 to 14.00 higher on quality offerings. Demand was moderate to good, especially for yearling steers, weaned calves, and guaranteed open heifers. As the week progressed, markets lost momentum and turned lower following sharply lower feeder and live cattle futures. By week's end, feeder steers and heifers were mostly 5.00 to 12.00 lower with the greatest pressure noted on heavier weight cattle. Demand remained moderate to good but buyers became more selective, with discounts noted on fleshy and off-colored cattle. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly 2.00 to 8.00 lower for the week. Slaughter classes were generally steady to mixed early in the week before trending lower during the second half. Demand for slaughter cattle ranged from moderate to good.

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 Kentucky barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
