Compared to last Monday, slaughter cows sold 1.00-3.00 lower and slaughter bulls sold 2.00-3.00 lower. The offering included a moderate supply of bred cows and very light supply of cow/calf pairs. A complete dispersal provided several good quality bred cows. Supply and demand were moderate for slaughter classes.
