Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls were 1.00-2.00 higher. Demand was good on a moderate supply of slaughter animals and bred cows and a light supply of pairs. The top slaughter bull sold for 250.00/cwt. and the top slaughter cow sold for 190.00/cwt. On the replacement side, the top pair sold for 5250.00/pair and the top bred cow sold for 3500.00/head. Light rain fell across the area this week with cooler overnight temperatures. Many producers are getting hay equipment ready to start harvest as soon as the ground dries out. Early harvest yields have been less than average.
