As filed

Compared to last week not enough feeder cattle for a comparison however undertones were steady to weak. Supply was light with moderate demand. Slaughter cows sold steady. Not enough slaughter bulls for a trend. The offering today did include several herd sell outs. A large crowd was on hand as bred cows sold up to 4,100.00 per head and cow-calf pairs sold up to 5,600.00 per pair. Demand was very good for the replacement cattle.

One grade step is worth $74.76/cwt here — about $348 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 400–500 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

31 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $501.78, low $397.85, median $455.61 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
