Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 6.00 lower. Supply was light to moderate and was made up of several calves with a good portion carrying flesh or un-weaned, along with a few yearlings. The overall quality was good. Demand was mostly moderate, good for the higher quality 400-525 lb steers. Cattle futures have worked lower this week, farmers are in the field and sharp temperature swings are forecast, all factors working against the feeder market. Slaughter cows sold steady to 1.00 higher.
