Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers sold mostly steady to instances 3.00 lower. Trade was active on good demand. Sunshine and mildly warm temperatures gave the area a chance to dry out and producers were able to get their cattle to market. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady.
