Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold mostly 3.00-7.00 higher on a bigger run and heifers sold steady. Demand was good and a few extra buyers in the seats made for an active market. Supply was moderate and mainly consisted of several attractive consignments of weaned calves. Scattered rain in the area has greened up the grass and increased morale as it was starting to get pretty dry. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 higher.
