Compared to two weeks ago: Although feeder cattle offerings were of light volume this week, we can still see that prices stayed steady on the low side of the averages, in the comparable weight groups. Flesh conditions were light to moderate and attractive for the majority. There was moderate buyer interest with offerings clearing the market at a reasonable rate. Next feeder cattle sale is March 13, 2020. (March 6, is a Bred Cow Special)
