Compared to last week, feeder steers were mostly steady to 3.00 lower; feeder heifers 3.00-5.00 lower. Demand for feeders was light to moderate with the best demand noted regularly on preconditioned feeder cattle weaned a minimum of 30 days. Slaughter cows were 2.00-3.00 lower and slaughter bulls 2.00-4.00 lower for the week. Unseasonably hot temperatures continued to prevail throughout the state this week, but cooler, more favorable temperatures are forecasted for the area soon which will bring welcome relief to livestock and producers alike.

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