Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers were 2.00-5.00 lower based on a light to moderate test due to winter weather that impacted the region late in the week. Livestock movement was moderate early in the week with heavy snowfall greatly impacting movement on Friday and Saturday.

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.
