Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers steady, instances 2.00-3.00 higher over 600 lbs. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs 3.00-8.00 lower, over 550 lbs steady. Slaughter cows steady. Demand good. Supply moderate. Lots of nice quality fall calves in the feeder mix. Feeder futures have been lower the past few trading days due largely to pressure from rising corn prices.
