Compared to last week Slaughter cows 9.00 to 10.00 lower. Slaughter Bulls 6.00 to 9.00 lower based on a light test. Feeder Steers and Bulls not well established due to insufficient receipts. Feeder Heifers steady to 5.00 higher. Quality fair to good. Demand was good for Feeder Cattle, while demand for Slaughter Cattle was moderate to weak.

One grade step is worth $9.46/cwt here — about $160 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 400–500 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

This barn's trailing prices 500–600 lb

30 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $456.21, low $333.47, median $382.02 across 30 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
