Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No recently tested market for a true price comparison. This week's sale featured a really high quality offering that included several reputation consignments, although the bulk of the cattle on offer were unweaned. Even more important than weaned status was a full vaccination program, as those with only one round of shots felt the sharpest discounts. Supply moderate, demand moderate to good.
