Compared to last week: Feeder steers traded mostly steady. Feeder heifers sold mostly 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Not enough comparable sales on steer and heifer calves for a market trend. Slaughter cows and bulls traded 2.00 to 3.00 higher. Trading activity was moderate on moderate to good buyer demand. According to USDA-NASS, winter wheat planting across the state reached 88 percent, up 5 points from the previous year. Winter wheat emergence has reached 67 percent, up 5 points from the previous year. Although rains have been scarce they've been pretty timely for the winter wheat crop thus far.
