No market trends available due to limited comparable receipts, however, a lower undertone was noted for feeder and slaughter classes, due in part to the recent downturn in the futures market and decreased buyer participation.

One grade step is worth $49.27/cwt here — about $231 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 500–600 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

23 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $419.64, low $327.37, median $370.92 across 23 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
