Compared to last week: Feeder steers 4.00-10.00 higher. Feeder heifers 3.00-6.00 higher. Demand very good for feeder cattle after last Monday's sharp declines. Steer and heifer calves lightly tested and few sales 1.00-3.00 higher. Demand good for weaned calves, moderate for those that are un-weaned. Quality plain to average, few attractive and several in thin flesh condition. Many areas of the state received some much needed rain last week and wheat planting will be in full swing across much of the state later in the week.

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
