Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifer calves sold mostly steady with some spots of up to 5.00 higher on some lighter weight calves. Yearlings didn’t see some of the extreme tops of last week, but like types and kinds sold near steady. Feeder supply was moderate with many barns not seeing the types of numbers they generally expect due to rains and extremely sloppy conditions in the country making it difficult to load and haul. The monthly Cattle on Feed report was released on Friday. Although numbers in all three categories were within the range of pre report estimates, they were all towards the very top end of the ranges. Placements were reported at 109 percent of last year, but to get the full picture one has to recall the extreme prolonged cold that swept over the nation in Feb. of 2021 which completely closed many auctions for two full weeks. On feed numbers were reported at 101 percent and Marketings at 105 percent. Boxed beef cutouts climbed a bit more this week as grilling season nears and demand should increase. Choice closed on Friday at 262.64, up 4.48 and select at 252.14, up 1.49 compared to the previous week. As of Friday afternoon just under 91K head of negotiated feedlot sales were reported. Live sales were from 138.00-142.00, enough late week sales at the 142.00 which should make the weighted average a touch higher for the week. Dressed sales were from 220.00-221.00 with a few up 225.00, mostly 221.00 which would be near steady with the previous week. The Missouri Stocker Formula consist of 4839 head with a weighted average weight of 535.36 lbs. and a price value of 190.81, 1.26 higher than last week.

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.
