As filed

Compared to last Monday the feeder market was lower with an average quality offering. Feeder steers 400 lbs and under were sharply lower, while the 500-650 lbs steers were 3.00 to 6.00 lower with a good supply and moderate demand. Feeder heifers 300-600 lbs were 6.00 to 8.00 lower or greater in spots with a good supply and moderate demand. Yearling steers and heifers appeared firm with a lite test, while the slaughter cows and bulls were mostly steady with a good supply and good demand.

One grade step is worth $124.96/cwt here — about $679 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 300–400 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

30 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $445.63, low $349.69, median $406.14 across 30 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
