Compared to last week, slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower and bulls sold 1.00 lower. Not enough feeder cattle for a market comparison. As drought conditions continue, ranchers continue to market open or late calving cows instead of running them another year. With limited rainfall the last several weeks along with wind and hot weather has made grass conditions susceptible for fires. As a few, have popped up in different areas the last seven days. Some alfalfa producers are on the second cutting in the eastern areas and the producers in the west are finishing up with first cutting.

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