Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Thursday at the same market, Stocker and feeder cattle 3.00-10.00 higher with better buyer attendance this week that last week. Best demand remains for double vaccinated weaned supplies. Slaughter cows and bulls 2.00-12.00 higher. The earlier than usual spike in demand for beef is being driven by the 90% lean grind whose prices have pushed steadily higher and are now running dollars above prior year. The improvement is because of the underlying demand for beef in China and the rerouting of beef previously targeted for the United States by Australia and New Zealand now being sent to China. The demand from smaller supplies in the U.S. have failed to be satisfied with the U.S. cow slaughter. Trade very active with very good demand.
