As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves sold 5.00-10.00 higher and feeders sold firm to 5.00 higher. Heifer calves weighing 350-475 lbs sold up to 15.00 higher. Demand was good to very good for a heavy supply with nice weather to move and receive cattle and the quality was attractive all day. Trade was active as summer cattle contracts are well over the $2.00 mark and grass buyers were ready to gather some grazers along with high demand for 6 weight steers making for a higher market. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly steady.

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.
