Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Feeder steers and heifers 8.00-15.00 lower based on a limited market test. Slaughter cows steady. Supply light. Demand moderate. Feeder offering mostly smaller packages of unweaned calves. Cattle futures that had already been in retreat took a huge blow as Fridays Cattle on Feed report showed reduced marketings and a much higher than expected placement number. Much of the increased placements were heifers and possibly drought related which would be long term bullish. April live cattle have lost about 16.00/cwt from earlier highs. Beef cutout values have actually been trending seasonally higher in recent days.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
