Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls traded 2.00-3.00 lower. Demand was good on a moderate supply of slaughter animals and bred cows and a light supply of pairs. The last day of Summer brought record temperatures across parts of the area with Fall temperatures predicted for the remainder of the week. Pasture conditions are typical for this time of year with areas not receiving measurable amounts of rainfall for the past three weeks. Some who benefited from good rains in August have reported their second cutting of hay outyielding their first.
