Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded 4.00 to 6.00 lower with the majority of the cows going to slaughter. Slaughter bulls traded 3.00 to 5.00 lower. A couple nice load lots of pairs sold steady to last week with the pair market. No trend this week on feeders but higher undertones noted on all classes.

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