Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded 2.00 to 4.00 higher with supplies becoming shorter every week. Slaughter bulls also trading 4.00 higher. Also today was a Bred Cow Special. A nice offering with a very active market. Several long strings of young to aged cows with also a nice offering of bred heifers. Sale again next Friday with another Bred Cow Special in two weeks.
