As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves were lightly tested but sold steady to 5.00 higher and a nice offering of yearlings that included several loads sold steady. Heifer calves and yearlings sold steady except for the 600-650 lb heifers trading 5.00-8.00 lower than last week's very active market for that weight range. Supply was moderate to heavy and included over 10 loads of yearlings along with some quality consignments of calves. Demand was good. Slaughter cows sold steady, bulls steady to 2.00 higher.

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.
