Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week slaughter steers were 6.00 lower and slaughter heifers were 3.00 to 4.00 lower but a good offering of steers and heifers with still lower packer interest. No Holstein slaughter steers today. Cows were 2.00 to 4.00 lower with a good offering and bulls 2.00 lower. Feeder steers were trending higher with feeder heifers 2.00 to 7.00 lower and feeder bulls significantly higher with good groups of fancy type bulls and active buyer participation.
