Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last reported sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold mostly with a steady undertone on a light supply but a few yearlings sold firm. Demand was mostly moderate, good in spots with a decent portion of the offering being un-weaned calves and bulls but some long weaned consignments were on hand as well. Slaughter cows sold 1.00-3.00 lower.

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

Slaughter cattle
