As filed

Compared to the last trended sale three weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers 1.00-7.00 higher. Slaughter cows 2.00-4.00 compared to two weeks ago. Supply light. Demand good. March corn gained nearly 9 cents Wednesday at 5.52/bu. Demand is picking up seasonally for the grazing flesh steers under 625 lbs, a trend which may be more pronounced this year with the large premiums seen in the fall feeder contracts based partly on their ability to eat some potentially cheaper 2021 corn.
