As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves sold 3.00-6.00 lower and a few yearlings sold weak to 3.00 lower. Heifers traded steady to 5.00 lower. Demand was moderate for a light to moderate supply. Mostly smaller packages of calves on offer this week handled in a variety of ways. A larger run is expected next week. Some much needed moisture fell across parts of the area over the last few days with varying amounts but most receiving a modest 0.5-1.0" of rain, at least enough to settle the dust. Slaughter cows and bulls 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.
