# The market is firm, with stable prices

> Uruguay's cattle-for-slaughter market remains firm, with strong demand for steers and more cows on offer. Last week 47,510 head were slaughtered, the most since February, though many were feedlot-finished animals sold under prior arrangements. Steers sold at US$6.00 per kg carcass, and cows mostly at US$5.60-5.70.

## Why it matters

Steady slaughter demand and stable carcass prices suggest no major shift in beef supply or price direction for feed buyers. Supply is still below the usual seasonal level.
