Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday on a light offering; slaughter cows steady instances 3.00-4.00 higher, slaughter bulls mostly steady instance 4.00 higher. Calves not enough for a good market comparison. Demand good to moderate on a special bred cow sale.

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