Compared to last week: No recent test for trends. Many auctions closed last week due to the Thanksgiving Day Holiday and bulk of the sales open were cow sales. Demand moderate for feeder cattle as cattle futures made big adjustments in both directions this week. Demand for calves very good as wheat pasture is looking good in many areas and grazing prospects are pretty good. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-4.00 higher. Slaughter bulls 4.00-5.00 higher. Demand good for all classes of cows.

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.
