Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, a light test of steers and heifers sold steady. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Light supply this week after winter weather crossed through the area but pretty active trade all day with good quality throughout the sale. Demand moderate to good.
