As filed

Compared to last week: There was not enough data to call and accurate trend on feeder steers and heifers but a lower undertone was noted. Feeder bulls sold from steady to 15.00 lower. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady. Quality was plain to average and demand was moderate.

One grade step is worth $8.45/cwt here — about $159 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 300–400 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

14 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $436.12, low $336.39, median $401.49 across 14 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
