JHI Closes Week at $31.31, Down from Last Week

The Jacobsen Hide Index (JHI) finished the week down to $31.31 from the week prior. The fed steer market remains under price pressure due to the difficulty in transporting hide material.

The demand for cowhide selections suggest fair interest from the furniture upholstery industry. The week’s estimated cattle slaughter was 655,000.
