Not enough feeder cattle for a market comparison. Slaughter cows sold unevenly steady and slaughter bulls sold 5.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good. Dryness along with very large grass fires are prevailing many areas of the state. Rain showers are needed on range lands to advert these tough situations. Hay producers continue to put up top quality hay across the region. Several hay producers still have some 2023 hay sitting in storage along with new crop 2024 hay.

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.
