Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows traded steady to 2.00 lower while slaughter bulls traded steady. Demand was good on a moderate supply of slaughter animals and pairs and a light supply of bred cows. For the first of August, the pasture conditions across the are about as good as it can get. Receipts are 1/2 of a year ago, as last year's combination of poor hay yields and drought had many producers culling their herds in July and August.
