As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves had the best test on 500-550 lbs selling steady to 3.00 lower, with steer calves weighing 400-650 lbs very lightly tested on a light offering with weights over 650 lbs scarce. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs were not well tested on a light offering with two pot loads of 670 and 780 lb heifers trading with a steady to firm undertone. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower. Demand was moderate on a moderate supply with overall quality mostly average to good on calves with the best demand on the two pot loads of heifers. Cattle futures started the week in the green with Live cattle futures having triple digit gains with the front three months 112-170 higher. December corn closed 2 3/4 cents lower with November and January soybeans closing 23 1/2 and 23 1/4 cents lower.
