Compared to last week, steers sold unevenly steady to 3.00 lower, except for some loads of yearlings over 800 lbs. which sold steady to 2.00 higher. Feeder heifers were mixed from 3.00 lower to 1.00 higher. The supply of feeders was moderate and demand was moderate to good. Weather continues to weight on the markets early week several areas of the state seen the first frost of the year. Not a hard killing frost but all the same it was frost. By mid to late week temperatures were in the mid 80’s. These swings are incredibly hard on the health of calves which make up the majority of the offering this time of year. It can’t be stressed enough how much good vaccination and weaning programs pays especially in the fall. Higher grain prices this week also put pressure on the cattle market. Corn prices are as high as they have been for the past year and quite unusual that the yearly highs have come right in the height of harvest. Drought also is becoming quite concerning especially in the southwest corner of the state where a small area has moved in to D3 status now. Boxed beef cutouts were lower for the week. Choice closed on Thursday at 216.00 down 2.88 and select 203.10 down 4.51 compared to last Friday. Slaughter cattle sales have been slow to develop this week as feedlot managers have dug in and try to gain more ground as of Thursday afternoon just over 40k head reported for the week. A few early sales have been reported mostly at 107.00-108.00 a few at 110.00 live which is steady to 1.00 higher and 169.00-170.00 dressed which is 1.00-2.00 higher. Friday’s Missouri Stocker Formula consisted of 3933 head with a weighted average of 549.17 lbs. and a price value of 149.98 down 0.45 compared to last Friday.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
Source: USDA AMS, as filed — nothing recomputed and nothing rounded. This summary aggregates the same sales the Missouri barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
