Compared to last week, slaughter cows sold 2.00-3.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 3.00-4.00 higher. Demand was good on a moderate supply of slaughter animals and a heavy supply of bred cows and pairs. Three herd sellouts along with the demand for stocker/feeder cows resulted in replacement cattle once again outnumbering the slaughter animals. Signs of Spring are popping out all over the Ozarks with Bradford Pears and Redbuds blooming and pastures starting to turn green. The parking lot was full of trailers, that had arrived empty, looking for bred cows and pairs to take back home.
Supply included (percentages are rounded): 61% Slaughter Cattle (12% Bulls, 88% Cows); 39% Replacement Cattle (26% Cow-Calf Pairs, 59% Bred Cows, 13% Stock Cows, 0% Bulls, 1% Bred Heifers);
