Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: There was not enough data to call a trend on feeder cattle or slaughter cattle but a higher undertone was noted. Quality was average and demand was moderate.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
