As filed

Compared to last week, the best test of 500lb - 650lb steers traded mostly steady to 2.00 higher. Feeder heifers traded mostly steady to 4.00 lower. Feeder supply was moderate to heavy with moderate demand. Slaughter cattle traded steady to 2.00 lower on a heavy supply with moderate demand. Drought conditions in the area continue to push calves and slaughter cattle to town as water and forage supply becomes more scarce.
