Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Thursday at the same market, not enough stocker or feeder cattle last week for accurate trends. Buyer attendance was good and locals are looking to fill spring grass pastures. Slaughter cows 3.00-7.00 lower. Slaughter bullls weak with an interest out of the market. Trade active with light to moderate demand.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
