Due to a lack of comparable data, trends could not be established, but all classes of cattle tended to sell with a weaker undertone. Quality fair, Demand moderate.

One grade step is worth $41.41/cwt here — about $245 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

28 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $501.85, low $374.23, median $428.03 across 28 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
