Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold 4.00 to 6.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Nice quality throughout the offering this week and improved marketing conditions made for active trade. A pretty big percentage of unweaned calves in the mix but discounts for the fleshiest cattle or those right off the cow weren't as steep as the previous sale. Supply moderate, demand moderate to good.
