A few ranchers were present this week biding against order buyers over offerings. More rain and cooler weather is forecasted for the weekend. Market activity was mostly moderate to active this week.

Weigh up conditions did deteriorate as the sale pushed into the afternoon and warm temperatures caused cows to tank up with water. Both feeding and slaughter cows sold fully steady. Slaughter bulls sold generally steady as well. Young age cows suitable to feed or rebreed sold generally steady. Quality this week was average and several buyers were in the market for these type offerings.
