As filed

Compared to last week, no trends available on feeder cattle under 600lbs due limited comparable sales, however a higher undertone was noticed. Feeder steers that were 600lbs to 800lbs sold 2.00 to 8.00 lower while the 600lbs to 800lbs heifers sold unevenly steady, slaughter cows sold 4.00 to 6.00 lower while bulls sold steady to 2.00 higher and replacements were weak. Trade was active with good demand and light supply.

One grade step is worth $47.32/cwt here — about $370 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 300–400 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

28 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $508.64, low $402.16, median $450.71 across 28 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
