As filed

Compared to last Thursday feeder steers sold 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Feeder heifers sold 8.00 to 12.00 lower. There was good demand for higher quality, weaned and vaccinated calves but fleshy, off colored, and not vaccinated calves moderate to light demand. Uncertainty in the CME futures still putting negative pressure on the market and demand. Slaughter cows sold 2.00 to 4.00 lower. Slaughter bulls sold 1.00 to 2.00 lower. There was moderate demand for slaughter classes.

31 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $502.25, low $405.13, median $465.79 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

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.

Feeder Cattle — prices, barns, and planning

Fed Cattle — the cash market and what quality pays

Beef & Retail — from the box to the grocery shelf
