No Comparison to last week due to July 4th holiday. However, compared to 6/27/19 Steers sold steady, Heifers sold 2.00-3.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls sold Steady. There was good demand for all classes of feeder and slaughter cattle, with moderate offerings and moderate buyer activity this week. Buyers showed good interest in heifer cattle and cattle with favorable condition as Hot July weather steady’s throughout the region with heat of the day showers.
