Omaha Weekly Thursday, Sept. 18 Report Supplied by USDA Slaughter steers and heifers on Wednesday regained some of Monday and Tuesday’s decline to close weak to mostly .50 lower than last week’s levels. Packers were quite cautious starting the week in anticipation of a bearish cattle on feed report. This, coupled with a downtown in carcass beef prices were the primary factors for early week decline. However, most packers were in need of cattle for current slaughter needs and by late Tuesday, a very good packer demand was responsible for recovering early week downturns. Slaughter cows 1.00-2.00 higher than last week, slaughter bulls steady. Estimated 5 day receipts this week 6,800 compared to actuals last week of 5,737 and last year of 6,823. Slaughter steers accounted for 30 percent of receipts this week; slaughter heifers 30 percent Livestoc slaughter cows 8 percent; feeder cattle 31 percent.
