As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold steady to 7.00 lower with the decline on 450-550 lbs. Heifer calves under 550 lbs sold 5.00-10.00 lower with the quality not as attractive, heavier weights steady. Supply and demand was moderate, except light demand for feeders over 800 lbs. Boxed beef prices are setting new record highs each day, but all segments of producers are left out on the increased prices. Slaughter cows sold steady.

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.
