Western Iowa Precondition Sale. No comparison, as the previous sale was not Precondition. CME feeder futures taking a downturn today. Lower trend noted. Smaller crowd and lighter offering, as farmers are able to get back into the fields for harvest. Half load of light steers and mostly smaller strings in the offering today. Good demand, both online and in the arena.
