Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Monday, the bulk of slaughter cows sold 2.00-3.00 higher with some high-dressing boning cows 5.00-6.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 3.00-4.00 higher. There was light supply of bred cows and very light supply of cow/calf pairs following the monthly replacement special this past Saturday evening. Supply was heavy and demand very good for slaughter classes.
