Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers were mostly firm compared to last weeks light test. Steer and heifer calves were sharply higher on comparable sales. The bulk of the supply consisted of light weight weaned cattle off the short wheat. As a result, buyer demand was very good for the light cattle that were ready to turn out on grass. Trading activity was very active. The majority of the trading region is still in desperate need of moisture.
