As filed

Compared to this same sale last week, steers/heifers over 550lbs 3.00 to 10.00 higher, with too few receipts to compare last week on feeder bulls. Slaughter cows/bulls 3.oo to 15.00 higher. Note: Limited inputs due to lower quality but buyer standards still remain high.

One grade step is worth $24.41/cwt here — about $62 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.

31 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $415.50, low $339.43, median $399.11 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
