As filed

Compared to last week: Steers were steady. Heifers were 3.00 higher both with a good quality and demand. Steer calves were 18.00 higher. Heifers were 32.00 higher. Both with a good quality and firm undertone. Few receipts from the previous week made it hard to trend calves under 400 lbs.

33 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $517.82, low $398.50, median $461.61 across 33 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.

Feeder Cattle — prices, barns, and planning

Fed Cattle — the cash market and what quality pays

Beef & Retail — from the box to the grocery shelf

Feed & Hay — the cost side, cash not futures

Cows & Bred Stock — the rebuild market
