Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last week due to the Holiday but slaughter steers and heifers were trending higher with a good offering of higher quality steers and heifers this week. A good offering of Holstein slaughter steers that were trending higher with high quality Holstein steers and Dairy/Beef slaughter steers were mostly steady. A light test of cows and bulls today that were trending lower. Dairy/Beef heifers were trending lower this week. Feeder steers were steady to lower on a light offering and feeder heifers trending lower with feeder bulls instances of higher/lower. Holstein feeder heifers and Dairy/Beef feeder heifers were at a higher price on a good offering and good buyer interest. A nice offering of young replacement bred cows and cow/calf pairs at a good value and active buyer participation.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
