As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls traded steady to 1.00 higher. Demand was good on a moderate supply. Rain has been plentiful this Spring with more in the forecast. Unlike last year, the grass has been growing and producers are hoping for a string of dry days to start their hay harvest.
