Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No recently tested market for a true price comparison, undertone higher. Good demand for the yearling cattle on offer as well as the long time weaned calves. Buyers were a little more selective for anything short weaned or carrying too much flesh. A couple groups of replacement quality heifers generated quite a bit of interest, ringing up right about 1050.00-1100.00 per head. Supply moderate.
