Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week slaughter and feeder cows traded 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Slaughter bulls also trading 2.00 higher. No trend on feeder cattle but higher under tones noted on all classes. Nice offering of feeder cattle with a very active market from both the internet and the seats.

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