As filed

Compared to last sale: In a light comparison; Feeder steers over 500 lbs 10.00-12.00 higher. Feeder heifers 2.00-8.00 lower on lesser quality. Steer calves 10.00-20.00 higher conservatively. Heifer calves steady to 10.00 lower. Buyers guardedly aware of the futures boards, cattle genetics and vaccinations. Mid-sale a rainstorm moved in bringing up to an inch of precipitation to the barn and slowing movement of cattle through the ring.

How this sale compares

Oklahoma weighted averages

One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Oklahoma auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
