About 400 head of slaughter cattle were sold today with the market showing steady as compared to last week. Demand for lean cattle was again high, with a lot of overlap in prices between lean and fat. Demand for lean beef slaughter cows was steady, perhaps $1 lower than last week, ranging from $95.00 -106.00/cwt. Fat beef cows were steady compared to last week, ranging from $102.00-108.00. Holstein slaughter cows were steady to a dollar lower with lean Holstein cows ranging in the upper eighties to low nineties and fat Holstein cows averaging in the mid nineties. Highlights include two loads of quality holstein slaughter cows out of LaSalle.
