As filed

Compared to last week, a very light run of feeder cattle overall were not well tested, with a few comparisons on the 400-600 lb heifers selling with a steady to firm undertone. A nice offering of slaughter cows sold on a very active market trading firm to 3.00 higher.

One grade step is worth $18.00/cwt here — about $17 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 0–100 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

15 sales

Heifers 0–100 lb: high $262.69, low $223.56, median $246.96 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
