Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows traded 1.00-2.00 higher with slaughter bulls mostly steady. Demand was good on a light supply. The Acorn Belt is starting September the greenest anyone can recall. Unlike last year, producers will be going into the fall and winter months with an adequate supply of hay, including many 3rd cuttings.
