Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday slaughter cows mostly steady, slaughter bulls steady with instances 3.00-5.00 higher. Not enough feeder calves for a good market test. Cow/calf pairs higher again this Tuesday with reputation quality pairs bringing $200.00-$300.00 higher per pair. Demand good with buyers very active on bred and cow calf pairs.
