As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows traded steady to 2.00 higher while slaughter bulls traded steady. Demand was good on slaughter animals and very good on bred cows and pairs. The supply was moderate with several high quality whole herd sellouts in the offering. Recent rains across the area helped to revive pastures although muddy lots limited receipts.
