Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to two weeks ago: a lighter offering than June 3 with best test on steers 950 to 1000 lbs mostly steady and 1001 to 1100 lbs steady to 1.00 lower. Heifers too lightly tested today to compare. Good demand for this offering with best demand seen for a couple loads of light steers which could go to grass. Flesh condition varied, but mostly moderate to some heavy. Quality mostly average overall. A moderate to active market with a more limited attendance of both buyers and farmers today. Temps right at 100 and slightly over forecasted for the weekend. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
