Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers traded 5.00-10.00 higher with spots 15.00 higher. Demand was very good on a heavy supply. Receipts were much higher than the past several weeks as both the cash and future prices have been gaining ground. Quality was above average with calves from reputation herds offered in pot load and multi-pot load packages.

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.
