Compared to last week slaughter steers were 2.00 lower with slaughter heifers 2.00 to 3.00 lower with a good offering of steers and heifers but lower packer interest this week. A light test of Holstein slaughter steers today that had instances of higher/lower. Dairy/Beef steers and heifers were trending higher with high quality steers and heifers selling higher. Cows had instances of higher/lower with bulls 4.00 higher with a good offering of high dressing cows and bulls at high value. Holstein cows were trending higher also today. Feeder steers were trending lower and feeder heifers and bulls significantly higher with a nice offering and fancy type feeders in all classes.

Beef & Retail — from the box to the grocery shelf
