Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers 5.00 to 10.00 higher. No recent good test of Holstein steers for a price comparison, undertone sharply higher. Demand good, supply moderate. The cooler temperatures across the mid U.S. helped with logistics of transporting and receiving cattle. The USDA Cattle On Feed showed 102 percent On Feed, 98 percent Placements, and 97 percent Marketed. The USDA Cattle Inventory for all Cattle and Calves was unchanged from a year ago.
