Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows sold 3.00 higher. Near capacity crowd on hand for the nice offering of bred heifers and cows. Several lots were sold on the internet and some loads were heading to the Southern Plains. Some lots of bred heifers were AI bred, bulk were bull bred. Most of the consignments will calve in March with some calving in April and a few in May.

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