Compared to last week: best test on steers 800 to 900 lbs mostly steady, 901 to 950 lbs steady to 2.00 higher, 951 to 1000 lbs 2.00 to 3.00 higher. Heifers of different weight classes than last week so not well compared for a trend. Good to very good demand for another large yearling offering of loads and strings, the majority of these off grass. A few packages of tested open heifers coming off grass as well. Less flesh overall than last week, mostly light to moderate flesh this week. Quality similar to last week, mostly attractive. An active market seen for this offering. Another week of very hot and dry conditions this past week. Many producers are busy cutting silage. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, August 25.
