As filed

Compared to last week the only weights of feeder steers with enough for a comparison were 750 to 800 lbs. at 8.00 higher. Other weights of steers trended 2.00 to 3.00 higher. Not enough feeder heifers for a comparison this week but most weights trended lower. There were several load lots of steers 750 to 1000 lbs. in today's offering. Demand was light for the heavier weight steers and heifers today. Not as many buyers in attendance due to the futures uncertainty and low numbers of feeders coming to market.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
