Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers were 1.00 to 2.00 higher with slaughter heifers 2.00 to 3.00 higher with higher packer bids this week. Holstein slaughter steers were trend higher with a good offering today. Cows had instances of higher/lower and bulls sharply higher this week. Feeder steers were trending lower with feeder heifers 2.00 lower but good value on fancy and value added steers and heifers. Feeder bulls were too few to compare this week.
