Compared to last week: Trend comparison not applicable. A lower undertone was noted on feeder steers. Heifers up to 700 lbs. on a steady to lower undertone, heifers 700 lbs. and up sold on a lower undertone. Demand was good. A few consigners did not come this week, due to board being lower. The next feeder auction will be March 19th, expecting 3000 head of feeders, starting at 9:00 am.
