Compared to the last sale 2 weeks ago: Feeder steers and heifers 4.00-8.00 higher. Demand good but many conditions were in the buyers favor. Weaned calves sold mostly steady to firm, however most of the un-weaned calves selling at a sharp discount. Supply did include some reputation brand un-weaned calves and these sold to very good demand. It is only mid September but we are already seeing temperatures more typical of October with warm days and cool damp nights. Demand moderate to good. Quality average to attractive, end plain.

Fed Cattle — the cash market and what quality pays

Beef & Retail — from the box to the grocery shelf
