As filed

Compared to last week, feeders sold uneven as steer calves sold mostly steady and a nice offering of yearling steers sold with a firm to higher undertone. Heifers calves sold with a weak to lower undertone while yearlings were lightly tested but sold mostly steady. Demand was moderate for calves and good for an attractive set of yearling steers. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold 4.00-6.00 lower.

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.
