Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves sold steady to as much as 10.00 higher on light weight stockers. Yearlings not well tested. Demand was moderate to good. Heavy rains across the panhandle curbed receipts, but boosted grass in pastures that had been drought stricken. Wheat pastures are also benefitting from recent rains.

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