As filed

Compared to last week steers and heifers sold steady to 6.00 higher with most of the gain on those under 600 lbs. A few drafts of heifer calves under 450 lbs sold sharply higher. It was the Annual Customer Appreciation sale and the overall quality was attractive. Demand was good for a heavy supply that featured mainly calves with a few yearlings in the offering.

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.
