Today at Fairview, no price comparison due to the limited supply of the last feeder special three weeks ago. A well attended sale before the summer break drove good demand and active trade for a mostly attractive offering, with feeder steers over 600lbs trading with a notable higher undertone. Feeder heifers 400-600lbs following the same trend.
