Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to Monday three weeks ago, slaughter cows and slaughter bulls sold 2.00-4.00 higher. The slaughter supply included several cull dairy cows. Supply was moderate for bred cows and light for cow/calf pairs. After an extended period without any cow sales during the Holiday's producers were anxious for this first sale of the new year. Supply was heavy and demand moderate for slaughter classes.
