Compared to last month: Trade activity and demand moderate. Dairy steers under 350 lbs traded mostly 5.00 to 10.00 higher, 350-450 lbs 1.00 to 8.00 lower, 450-700 lbs sharply lower, and over 700 lbs mostly 1.00 higher. Dairy heifers were too lightly tested to trend, but lower undertones were noted. The next available report will be Monday, April 6, 2020.
