As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves were lightly tested but sold unevenly steady from 5.00 higher to 5.00 lower except for a few packages of 400-500 lb steers selling with a higher undertone. Yearling steers sold steady and a nice offering of several loads of yearling heifers sold with a firm undertone. Demand was mostly moderate for the calves with several carrying some flesh and moderate to good for yearlings with the yearling heifers seeing the most activity. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.

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.
