Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, based on a light test, calves and yearlings sold steady to 5.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good for a light to moderate supply. Several negative are factors working against the market this week including poor weather conditions, large numbers of cattle moving the last few weeks and a lower board but the local cash feeder market held up pretty well. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly 2.00-5.00 higher except for the leaner cows selling steady.
