As filed

No trends due to market being closed last week for adverse weather conditions. However, the feeder market appeared sharply higher across all classes of livestock with a good supply of high quality feeders. Buyers were active today and showed strong demand for feeder calves and yearlings as well. Slaughter cows and bulls appeared stronger as well with a large supply and good demand.

One grade step is worth $83.07/cwt here — about $464 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 400–500 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

31 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $446.90, low $346.97, median $412.36 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
