Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Due to major amounts of snowfall in the trade area, with some areas receiving up to 15 inches of snow, receipts were limited today with a lower undertone prevailing. Overall, demand moderate, quality average. Slaughter cows higher undertone noted, no bulls for a market test.
