Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last week due to no coverage but slaughter steers and heifers were both trending lower with lower packer interest again this week but a good offering of steers and heifers today. Holstein slaughter steers were also lower but some higher quality Holsteins that were at a higher value. Cows were trending lower with a good offering and bulls trending lower with high dressing bulls at a higher value. All classes of feeder calves were trending lower but some value added and fancy type feeders were trading higher.
