Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold mostly steady to weak, with exception of cattle suitable for grazing trading with a higher undertone. Feeder heifers traded 1.00-3.00 lower. Demand moderate. Quality plain to average, few attractive. Steer and heifer calves sold mostly steady, steer calves were lightly tested. Demand moderate to good as warmer weather is in the forecast greening up grazing pastures.

Feeder Cattle — prices, barns, and planning

Fed Cattle — the cash market and what quality pays

Beef & Retail — from the box to the grocery shelf

Feed & Hay — the cost side, cash not futures

Cows & Bred Stock — the rebuild market
