As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower, and slaughter bulls were mostly steady. Another week with a majority of replacement cattle, but mostly groups of bred cows, with many over 5yrs old. Demand was good on a moderate supply.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
