FEEDER CATTLE 1709 705 1344
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 11 2 5
SLAUGHTER CATTLE 93 26 54
Compared to last Tuesday the feeder market was stronger with a good quality
offering. Good quality feeder steers and heifers 600 lbs and under were 3.00
to 10.00 higher or greater in several spots with a good supply and good demand
for weaned and value added packages. Yearling steers and heifers appeared
steady with a large supply but limited comparisons. Buyers were active today
and willing to pay premiums for quality feeders and long weaned calves, while
discounting plainer and off colored calves severely. Slaughter cows were
mostly steady to 2.00 lower for the leans with a good supply and slaughter
bulls were 2.00 to 3.00 lower with good demand.
