As filed

Compared to last week, the majority of steers sold 2.00 to 8.00 higher, but a larger offering of the 450-550 lb steers sold mostly 10.00 higher with spots up to 15.00 higher on increased demand. Heifer calves sold 3.00-8.00 higher, yearlings steady. Supply was heavy and demand was good to very good with quality strings of calves and loads of yearlings making their way through the ring all day. Slaughter cows sold steady, bulls 2.00-3.00 higher. West-Central Missouri has remained wet for the last several weeks and field work and haying has basically been at a stand still, but the latter part of the week looks warm and dry with the potential to get some work done.

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.
