Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers sold unevenly steady this week. Lower undertones were evident. With the weather being nice the demand for this offering was moderate. At the time of this report CME Corn was higher while CME Feeder Market was lower. Slaughter cows and bulls were to few to make a meaningful comparison.
