A large crowd was on hand for this month's Bred Cow and Pair Sale at New Cambria Livestock with a number of active bidders. Without many large strings for buyers to build around demand was moderate. Supply light.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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.
