As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steer calves under 600 lbs sold mostly 5.00-15.00 higher with the exception being the 450-500 lb steers trading steady but at very impressive prices as well, steers over 600 lbs traded steady. Heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher. Several active bidders again this week made for a brisk trade that pushed top prices. Demand was very good for a moderate to heavy supply that included many reputation strings of weaned cattle. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

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.
