Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded unevenly steady. Steer and heifer calves traded mostly weak to 2.00 lower. Slaughter cows and bulls were mostly steady. Trading activity was moderate on moderate demand. We're still seeing a large price disparity between heavier weight weaned and unweaned calves, due to wide temperature swings that are normal for this time of year. According to the Cattle Market Report and Analysis, rains across much of Texas and Oklahoma will increase the likelihood of improved winter grazing. Those rains may fall late for dryland pastures from the Texas Panhandle north into Kansas.
