Sale not reported in recent weeks so an accurate trend can not be established. Today's offering consisted of one long string of steers and a handful of packages. Good to very good demand seen for the attractive string of steers, moderate to good demand for packages. Varied quality on packages, from plain to attractive, most of these were in light to moderate flesh. Quite a few of these were fall calves. Flesh on the string was mostly moderate to moderate plus. A moderate to active market for the offering with a more limited crowd of buyers attending the sale today. Some rain last night with Mobridge getting about half an inch, some areas seeing a bit more. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
