Compared to last week, slaughter cows were steady and slaughter bulls were 2.00-3.00 higher. Demand was good on a light supply of replacement cattle and a moderate supply of slaughter animals. Much needed rain fell across parts of the area which should help pasture conditions. With warmer night temperatures, producers are hoping for a better hay crop than a year ago.

Supply included (percentages are rounded): 67% Slaughter Cattle (15% Bulls, 85% Cows); 33% Replacement Cattle (1% Bulls, 9% Cow-Calf Pairs, 55% Bred Cows, 33% Stock Cows, 3% Bred Heifers);
