Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter cows 2.00-3.00 higher with a majority of the test on boner and lean cows. Slaughter bulls not well tested last week but a sharply higher undertone was noted. Demand good. There was a abundance of average to attractive bred cows on offer. A week of warm temps has producers bringing cull cows in before another cold front comes through. A total of 955 cows and bulls sold with 48 percent going to packers. The estimated dressed cost at the Oklahoma National Stockyards: Lean cows 108.35; Boners 112.60; Breakers 116.25; Light weight cows 100.75; Bulls 144.70.
