Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last week due to no coverage but slaughter steers and heifers were trending higher to steady with a good offering of high quality steers and heifers. Holstein slaughter steers were mostly steady today. Cows were trending mostly steady with Holstein cows instances of higher/lower and bulls steady to lower. All classes of feeder calves were trending higher with a good offering of all classes of feeders and lots of fancy type feeders and good buyer interest this week.
