As filed

Compared to last week, no trend available due to limited comparable sales on feeder cattle. Boning slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 higher, with breakers and lean cows selling too light to test. While slaughter bulls sold on a light test. Slaughter sheep and goats sold with to few compables to trend, with feeder lambs selling 17.00 higher. Trade was active with a good demand and a light to moderate supply.
