Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly steady except for 500-550 lb calves selling up to 5.00 higher. Demand was good for a light supply on a cool, pleasant day to end July. Plentiful moisture and forage is keeping some cattle at home to put on extra pounds. Slaughter cows sold firm to 3.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 5.00-7.00 higher.
