Compared to last week: There was a better turn out of backgrounded cattle this week but due to a shorter run last week, there were few comparable sales. Sentiment seemed to the lower side on most classes of steers and heifers with the exception being heifers weighing between 500-670 pounds. They brought 8.00-10.00 higher, largely due to better quality than last weeks offering. Slaughter cattle slid back some as well. Average to high yielding boner cows slipped 6.00-8.00 lower. Despite the slight slip back, trade remained active on good demand. Supply included: 84% Feeder Cattle ( 52% Steers, 46% Heifers, 1% Beef/Dairy Steers, 1% Beef/Dairy Heifers); 15% Slaughter Cattle ( 91% Cows, 9% Bulls); 1% Replacement Cattle ( 100% Bred Cows). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 78%.USDA market reporter, Dalhart, TX
