No recent test of market for an accurate comparison a trend will not be given for steers or heifers. Demand was very good for all offerings of Fall calves and Yearlings, several buyers in the barn today and active internet bidding. Scattered rain showers in the Sandhills of NE, but still dry in areas. Next Auction Date July 12th BBQ Appreciation Auction
