Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last week due coverage but slaughter steers and heifers were trending higher with good quality and better packer interest. Holstein slaughter steers were trending higher and Dairy/Beef steers significantly higher. Cows and bulls were trending higher on a low test today. Feeder steers and heifers were sharply higher with feeder bulls trending lower this week.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Slaughter cattle
