Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls sold unevenly steady. Feeder cattle lightly tested. However, a higher undertone was noted. Demand was good for all offerings this week. Rain showers across different areas of the state has curtailed receipts. Many producers are hoping they will have enough summer grass and can either produce or buy hay for the winter months feeding. Rains in the eastern part of the state has not let hay producers start on first cutting of alfalfa.

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