Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Therefor a complete and accurate comparison cannot be made due to limited receipts in each weight break compared to two weeks ago: Higher undertone is noted on all classes of feeders. Demand was good to moderate on today's offering of feeder steers and heifers. Quality was mostly attractive with feeders in light to moderate flesh. Next sale is scheduled for April 2, 2020.

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