Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers sold 2.00-5.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves 500-600 lbs 3.00-5.00 higher, lighter weight calves not well tested. Demand good. Quality average to attractive. Much needed moisture came over the weekend, but temperatures remain warm and very humid. Wheat planting is in full swing across the state, but the continued warm temps have farmers worried about army worms.
