As filed

Compared to two weeks ago: In a light test feeder steers 2.00 to 7.00 lower, heifers 2.00 to 5.00 lower except 750-800 lbs 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Demand for this light offering of eye appealing green cattle was good. Several preconditioned, green steers ready for grass, along with a few groups of bangs vaccinated heifers that could go to grass or to the breeding herd. CME Live Cattle Feeder Cattle was up, while the corn is down. Slaughter cows up 2.00 to 5.00. Slaughter bulls steady. Demand for the slaughter cows and bulls was very active today.
