Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Not enough comparable sales on steer or heifer calves for a market trend but a slightly lower undertone was noted. Slaughter cows and bulls were mostly 1.00 to 2.00 higher on a light test. Trading activity was active on good buyer demand. Several nice sets of bred cows and light weight calves were on offer. Many producers are culling deeper into their herds and selling calves earlier as grass conditions continue to worsen with hotter than average temperatures and limited rain.
