Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison due to no sale last week because of inclement weather. However all feeder and yearling classes were 15.00-25.00 higher than two weeks ago and all feeder and yearling classes sold with very good demand. All slaughter classes sold with very good demand.

31 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $514.05, low $359.98, median $452.36 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
