Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday slaughter cows mostly steady, slaughter bulls steady with instances 3.00-5.00 higher. Not enough feeder calves for a good market test. Cow/calf pairs higher again this Tuesday with reputation quality pairs bringing $200.00-$300.00 higher per pair. Demand good with buyers very active on bred and cow calf pairs.

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

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