Compared to last week steer and heifer calves and yearlings 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Demand good, supply moderate. Several lots of long time weaned calves and yearlings in the offering. Buyers more active with the mild weather and cattle futures continue to trade in a upward trend.

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.
