Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers under 600 lbs. 13.00-17.00 higher compared to limited receipts last week due to the winter storm, over 600 lbs. 3.00-5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00-2.00 higher, no comparison on bulls but a much higher undertone noted. Trade active, demand very good.
