As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls traded steady to 1.00 higher. Bred cows traded 50.00-75.00 per head higher and pairs were not well tested. Demand was good on a heavy supply of slaughter animals, a moderate supply of bred cows and a light supply of pairs.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
