Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower. The bulk of the supply went to slaughter with only a small percentage of consignments finding a ride back to the farm. This week's offering included a complete dairy dispersal. Cow/calf pairs were pretty scarce with only a handful of pairs scattered throughout the sale. Supply light and demand moderate.
