Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, feeder cattle sold sharply lower on calves and yearlings. With Boning and lean slaughter cows selling 7.00 to 11.00 higher, with breaker cows selling too light to test. While slaughter bulls sold steady on a light test. Trade was active with a good demand and a moderate supply.

One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Utah auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
