As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 6.00 higher with the most gain on the 500-600 lb heifers. However, yearling steers weighing over 750 lbs traded mostly 5.00 lower. Demand was good to very good for a heavy supply with near perfect weather to move cattle and with calf prices higher than the last several years, producers were content with marketing cattle now. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to firm.

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.
