No trend as this was the first weigh cow sale of 2026. Slaughter and feeder cows holding strong with a nice offering with a steady market noted to 2025. Several buyers in the seats with the majority of the cows returning to the county. Sale again next Friday.
Slaughter cattle
By class and quality grade · $/cwt
Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
Nothing removed and nothing rounded — the same lots as the USDA report, with per-head values added. Grouped by class and set lightest first; USDA files them in sale-ring order.
