Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: All classes lightly tested. Breaker cows sold 3.00 higher, Boner and Lean cows were steady to 2.00 lower. Slaughter bulls 3.00 higher. Numbers lighter following heavy rains that fell across the state Monday and over the weekend. Two to six inches pretty common in all areas, except for the Panhandle. Packer demand moderate to good.
