Compared to last week: Feeders steers and heifers steady to 2.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves unevenly steady, not all weights well tested. Demand moderate good. Quality average. Some much needed rain is moving across the state and more is expected as the week goes on. Another good week of slaughter cattle movement last week as prices held steady.
