As filed

Compared to last week, Steers sold steady although a weak undertone was noted. Heifers sold weak. Bulls sold on a split market, with bulls weighing less than 500lbs selling weak, and bulls weighing over 500lbs selling firm. Dairy Steers and Dairy Heifers sold firm on a light test. Overall, buyer attendance was moderate for todays sale, with good demand for steers and light to moderate demand for heifers on a moderate to heavy sale supply.
