Compared to last week: Not enough comparable sales on feeder steers and heifers for a market trend but a much lower undertone was noted. Steer and heifer calves traded mostly 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Slaughter cows traded 2.00 to 5.00 lower on a light test. Trading activity was moderate on light to moderate demand. Windy conditions coupled with hotter than average temperatures have deteriorated pasture and rangeland conditions further. However, rain and cooler temperatures are in the forecast through the weekend and the beginning part of next week.
