As filed

Last sale reported was two weeks ago, July 10, 2020. There were not enough offerings to make a comparison breakdown. Although, the price trend held a higher undertone. Flesh conditions of the feeder cattle offered today were of mostly attractive, green conditions. There was active market activity coupled with good demand for today's sale. No sale next week. Aug 14, 2020 will be the next sale.
