As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows traded steady and slaughter bulls traded 2.00 lower. Demand was moderate on a moderate supply. The receipts were lighter than the past four weeks as the forecast for more rain across the area has producers hopeful that they can hang on a little bit longer. USDA reports released last week had Beef Cow slaughter, year to date, 14 percent higher and 27 percent higher than the 5 year average. The monthly Cold Storage Report, reported total pounds of beef in freezers were down 2 percent from the previous month but up 29 percent from last year.
