Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last week due to no coverage but, slaughter steers were at a good value on high dressing and higher quality steers with slaughter heifers were trending steady. A good offering of Holstein slaughter steers this week that were steady. Cows were trending lower and bulls had a light offering today. There was a good offering of Holstein feeder heifers and steers this week with a light offering of colored feeder steers and heifers that were too few to trend.
