Compared to last week: Sale results were largely mixed on all classes of steers and heifers. Quality steers coming off of wheat and weighing an average of 560 lbs brought the highest gains of over 50.00 higher. There were few comparable sales on heifers to determine a trend, however; sentiment was largely to the higher side. There was no test on high yielding slaughter cows but, average yielding boners brought 6.00 higher. Trade active on good demand.
