Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: No accurate comparison available due to very limited receipts following a severe winter storm with extremely cold conditions with snow and wind causing cancellations of cattle movement throughout the trade area. The receipts were all a limited number of calves and feeders and feeders found a very good demand and very active trade for an attractive offering. No slaughter cattle offered.
