Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last due to no coverage last week, but all classes of slaughter cattle were selling mostly steady today with some good steers and heifers. Holsteins were also mostly steady. Cows and bulls were trending higher with a good offering of high dressing cows and bulls. Feeders numbers were very light today with no comparison.

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