As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 2.00 higher with high dressing bulls selling 6.00 higher. Bred Cows were steady with Pairs not well tested. Demand was very good on a moderate supply. Trade was very active on slaughter animals to meet the demand for ground beef. The top Slaughter Bull brought 140.00/cwt. and the top Slaughter Cow brought 120.00/cwt. Choice Boxed Beef prices set a new high for 2023 at 325.19/cwt. which was 19.35 higher than a week ago.
