As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers and slaughter heifers were 1.00 lower with a lighter offering this week. No Holstein slaughter steer today. Cows were 1.00 lower and bulls 2.00 lower with fewer numbers also today. Feeders too few to compare this but had a higher undertone.

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