Livestock Market Report Shows Sluggish Beef Demand
Local cattle receipts run about 10 percent lower than last week and 15 percent below the week before, while through receipts exceed recent months. Heavy cattle prices fall as buyers favor dressed beef, with packers paying around 3 cents per pound for certain weights and urging home sourcing to compete with Chicago markets. Sheep and lambs see weaker demand, with light and medium grades hard to sell, though very choice lambs remain scarce.
