Reporter comment USDA

As filed

A lighter offering than last week with many weight classes not well compared. Best test on steers 900 to 950 lbs mostly steady. Good demand for a couple strings and a handful of packages which made up today's light offering. Flesh similar to last week, mostly light to moderate, with some of the cattle coming off grass again today. A few more home raised cattle offered today, quality was mostly attractive overall. An active market for the offering with a more limited crowd of buyers attending the auction. Feeder cattle sale planned next week, July 31.
