Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last sale: Feeder steers over 600 lbs steady to 5.00 higher conservatively. Feeder heifers mostly steady with a higher undertone noted. Steer and heifer calves, too light of a test on weaned calves to set a trend. Demand strong. Quality ranged from average to attractive with several drafts of F1 replacement heifers. Today's market started strong and remained solid throughout the sale. Buyers in the barn and online very active on all vaccinated cattle, weaned and unweaned. CME Feeder Futures Boards closed in the green today.
