Compared to last week, slaughter cows traded steady while slaughter bulls traded 1.00-2.00 lower. Demand was good on a moderate to heavy supply. Most have harvested their first cutting of hay and are starting to feel the effects of the dry weather. Pasture conditions are still good but depending on where those hit or miss showers happen to hit will determine how good they remain.
