As filed

Compared to last week: best test on steers 1000 to 1049 lbs steady to 1.00 higher, other weight classes of steers and heifers not well compared. Very good demand for cattle again this week. A few more home raised cattle featured this week but also strings and loads of backgrounded cattle. A wider range in flesh condition this week with cattle coming off grass in light to moderate flesh to cattle out of yards in heavy flesh. Quality mostly average to attractive. An active market with a few less buyers attending but plenty of interest in filling pens. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, July 23.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
