Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls traded 4.00-6.00 higher. Demand was good on a light supply. Supplies were light due to the heavy snow across the area Tuesday night which resulted in a power outage at ORS until late Wednesday afternoon. The USDA's Cold Storage Report released today reported beef in freezers up 4 percent from last month and 7 percent higher than a year ago.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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