As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls traded steady. Demand was good on a heavy supply of slaughter animals and a moderate supply of replacement cattle. Dry and sunny weather for the past week has allowed producers to get their hay harvested with many showing up today to test the cow market. Slaughter cows and bulls continue to be in good demand and high quality bred cows and pairs have no difficulty finding a new home.
