Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded 2.00 to 4.00 lower. Slaughter bulls traded mostly steady on a limited test. A large run this week with a Bred cow section but most being late calvers with those being sold in the weigh up section. A nice offering all the way around with the fall run beginning with lots of ranches preg checking.
