Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cattle traded 2.00 to 5.00 lower. Slaughter bulls mostly steady on a limited test. There was also two loads of yearling steers off one ranch. Also a few bawling calves on display with active bidding from seats. A lighter offering this week than recent weeks but extreme drought is still surrounding the area. Sale again next Friday.
