Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers were 1.00 lower with slaughter heifers were 1.00 to 2.00 lower also. Holstein slaughter steers were 1.00 lower his week. Cows and Bulls were too few to trend along with all classes of feeder calves. Lower receipts this week on all classes of cattle due to weather conditions and lower packer inquiry.
