Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower and slaughter bulls sold 1.00 lower on a heavy supply. There was a light to moderate supply of bred cows and a light supply of cow/calf pairs. Heavy rain this morning across the trade area created muddy conditions and discouraged producers from moving cattle to market. Supply was light and demand light to moderate for slaughter classes.
