Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week slaughter steers were 2.00 to 3.00 lower and slaughter heifers 1.00 to 2.00 lower and lower packer interest again this week. Holstein slaughter steers were too few to compare. Cows were 6.00 to 7.00 lower with a good offering of cows and a light test on bulls that were 5.00 higher today. Feeder steers had instances of higher/lower with feeder heifers and bulls were significantly lower but still good value on fancy type and value added feeders.
