Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No market trends available due to no sale last week in response to inclement weather, however, higher-quality offerings and a higher undertone was noted for feeder and slaughter classes this week compared to sale two weeks ago.

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

Slaughter cattle
