As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 higher with greatest the advance on high-dressing individuals and slaughter bulls sold fully steady on a light test. The slaughter market was a weather influenced market with snow and slick roads across much of the Mid-west. There was a moderate supply of bred cows and cow calf pairs with a large dispersal included in the offering. Supply was moderate and demand good for slaughter classes.
