As filed

Compared to last report, no trend available on feeder cattle due to too few comparable sales. With boning slaughter cows selling steady, while breaker, lean cows, and slaughter bulls sold too light to test. Trade was active with a good demand with a light supply.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $487.50, low $342.54, median $419.61 across 18 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
