Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher, except a few lean cows sold 8.00-10.00 higher. Slaughter bulls steady to 2.00 lower but packer bull quality was plain to average. Packer demand still very good and feeder buyers were big competition again. A few really good replacement cows were included and these sold to very good demand.
