Compared to last week, feeders sold steady to 3.00 higher, except heifers under 550 lbs sold steady to 2.00 lower. The supply was nearly a total flip from last week with the majority of the cattle steers and a much larger percent over over 600 lbs. including several large strings. Demand was good. The supply was moderate with many of the cattle carrying very little flesh and suitable for grazing.

How this sale compares

Missouri weighted averages

One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Missouri auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
