Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly firm to 2.00 higher on limited comparable sales. Slaughter cows were firm. Quality was plain. Trading activity and demand were moderate. Scattered showers have continued to move across portions of the Southern and Eastern Panhandle, which has helped reduce drought deficits in the area.
