week’s bookings. Despire the firm
market tone, sentiment was
generally steady, as costs of spent
hens in relation to current trending
prices on finished product, was
making further processing
prohibitive. Offerings were
adequate for the generally lighter
schedules and trading continued
very competitive. The demand for
canner pack was slow to just fair.

Cuttability proved to be the key
factor in the pricing mechanism;
as in many cases, buyers were
willing to overlook good grades
(discounted 2.00-3.00 in the meat
trade), in order to avoid YG 4 and
steers weighing 1300 lbs. and up,
still finding a narrowed outlet.
Slaughter cows 1.50-2.50 higher.
Bulls fully steady.
Estimated 5 day receipts 8900;
