Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls were steady to 2.00 lower. Demand was good on a moderate supply of slaughter animals and bred cows and a light supply of pair. Much welcomed rain across the area and warmer temperatures have improved pasture conditions with grass starting to be more plentiful. The market was active and saw several online buyers purchasing livestock.
