Omaha Weekly
Thursday, August 29
Report Supplied by USDA
Slaughter steers and heifers
ranged 50-1.00 lower for the week,
under a demand pattern that
narrowed as the week progressed.
A fairly liberal movement of cattle
from direct trade points afforded
buying interests the opportunity to
take a firm stand to lower price
levels. An unstable beef trade also
kept pressure on the live market.
Overall finish proved fairly at
tractive and numbers of ‘over
weight’ and/or ‘over-fat’ kinds
modest. Slaughter cows 1.00 lower.
Bulls steady.
Estimated 5 day receipts 6,650;
actuals last week 7,617; last year
6,975. Steers comprised 48 percent
of week’s receips; heifers 41
percent; cows 7 percent, feeders 3
percent.
