As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves traded 6.00-9.00 lower with spots 12.00 lower. Yearling steers and heifers traded 3.00-6.00 lower. Demand was moderate on a moderate supply. Good gains on the cattle futures boards were not enough to offset last week's heavy losses. The weather delayed planting season is having an impact on the cash feeder market as higher feed costs are expected.

How this sale compares

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.
