Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Packages of bred heifers and cows. Some of the heifers were AI bred to start calving early 2027. Prices on the higher side compared to last reported bred sale. The drought is still causing problems with producers with no grass and high hay prices. Demand moderate to good.
