Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison is available to last week due to absence of reporter. But, compared to two weeks ago both feeder steers and heifers were trending sharply higher. Supply was good and demand strong with good buyer attendence and interest in most all cattle. Slaughter cows and bulls were steady to 5.00 higher.

Slaughter cattle

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
