Compared to last week: This weeks offering was largely dairy culls and heifers, with a limited offering of beef calves and feeders. Therefore; there was no test on steers and very limited test on heifers. Trade was uneventful and most cattle were plain to average. Slaughter cattle were mostly steady to a tick lower as thin, droughty, open cows continue to come to town. The heat wave and dry conditions continue to effect the sale area, depleting already stressed range conditions. May we all get some relief soon!
