Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last tested market from three weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers traded firm to 10.00 higher, with instances up to 20.00 higher on weights under 500 lbs. The feeder market continues its march higher, supported by the record high slaughter prices. It is incredible that the local producers that need to liquidate because of the worsening drought can sell into such a phenomenal market. Demand was good to very good and supply moderate to heavy.
