Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers 4.00-8.00 lower. Demand moderate for feeder cattle despite numbers continuing to get tighter. Feeder cattle futures declined this week as a host of negative items hit the markets, higher grain prices, lower Boxed Beef prices.

Steer calves sold mostly steady to 4.00 lower, decline on the 5 weights. Heifer calves 1.00-3.00 lower. Demand moderate to good for calves with short weaned or un-weaned calves seeing the least action. Many cattle continued to come to market early due to drought and the lack

of hay or high hay prices. Temperatures remain in the low to mid 90's and no rain in the near forecast for the next week. The calendar says it will be fall next week, however summer is still hanging on. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady, except Boner cows and they were 3.00 higher. Slaughter bulls sold 3.00 higher. Market continues to hold strong, even after the large run of cows this week. Packer demand moderate to good.

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 Oklahoma barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
