The feeder animal recovered part of its value, since it had experienced a decrease of around 10% in previous auctions.
Meanwhile, the 300 to 350-kilogram (660 to 770-pound) calf was paid at $3,300, which implies a 2.4% drop in price compared to seven days ago.
It is worth noting that this value serves as a reference for meat prices on store shelves.
