Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, the best tested weights were the 600-700 lb weight range on both steers and heifers and they sold steady. A lighter test of other weight groups that sold in mostly smaller packages traded unevenly steady. A couple days of rain has muddied the countryside which kept receipts down. Supply was moderate and demand was moderate to good. Slaughter cows sold 3.00 to 5.00 higher.
