As harvest in western Illinois winds down, local producers delivered an impressive offering of quality feeder cattle to Fairview today. A noticeable increase in buyer attendance and participation was evident, as trade was steady to higher across most weights. As with recent Fairview feeder specials, stronger upward price trends continue.
