Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Based on limited comparisons with last week, steers and heifers mostly steady with a few packages of weaned steer calves 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Demand moderate to good. Supply light. The latest feeder index is nearly 3.00/cwt higher with lower corn and another low placement number expected in the upcoming Cattle on Feed report. Very warm day with rain and more seasonal temperatures in the immediate forecast.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $519.42, low $374.69, median $457.99 across 24 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
