Compared to two weeks ago: Feeder steers and heifers unevenly steady. Demand for this nice offering of green cattle was moderate. The weather was perfect for some to start harvesting. A few large lots of nice looking green yearlings sold. CME Corn closed lower along with feeder cattle. Slaughter cows Breaker 1.00 to 3.00 lower, Boner and Lean steady to 1.00 higher. Slaughter bulls 1.00 to 2.00 higher.
