Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded 2.00 to 3.00 higher with the exception of fat cows which traded steady to last week. Slaughter bulls traded steady to last week on a limited test. Also a nice offering of bred cows. A nice offering of all types of cows with a very active market.

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