Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: A much needed rain throughout the trade area kept receipts too few to establish a proper trend, however, a lower undertone is noted on both steers and heifers. Demand remains good. Quality also good. Slaughter cows mostly steady to 2.00 lower. Slaughter bulls steady.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Replacement cattle Per head
