Report Supplied by USDA
Market Comment: Prices
continued to trend lower on all
sizes. Demand was light to fair and
generally unaggressive at all
levels of distribution. Graded
supplies ranged adequate or
available, particularly mediums
and large. Gradable supplies at
local and distant production points
were currently in excess of packer
needs, and breakers offered little
option, as most limited receipts in
anticipation of lower asking prices
for breaking stocks.
