Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Not enough comparable trades to test trends but a lower undertone is noted. Demand moderate to good as lighter numbers are still a part of the story. Nice rains last week followed by spring temperatures. More rain is in the forecast for next week.

Source: USDA AMS · Oklahoma City, OK. Prices are as filed, F.O.B. at origin, with the buyer taking freight — they are not comparable to a spot ring price and never enter a barn average. Weights are USDA’s estimates — these cattle had not been weighed when they sold. Delivery months differ between lots; a price for one month is not a price for another. Head is summed from the lots as reported.
