Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves 11.00-17.00 higher compared to last week's limited offerings but weather conditions much improved and quality more attractive, No comparison on feeders due to very limited offerings last week but a higher undertone noted on limited offerings this week. Slaughter cows steady to 3.00 higher, bulls 4.00 higher. Trade active, demand very good.
