Last reported sale was May 21, 2021. With the time that has elapsed there will no comparison made. Early yearlings made up the feeder cattle sale today. The longer strings of guaranteed open heifers and yearling steers, came off grass carrying an attractive, green flesh condition. The market was moderate to active with offerings rapidly absorbed. Next sale is Aug 20, 2021 due to Sturgis rally.
