Compared to last week: Not enough comparable sales on feeder steers or heifers from last weeks light test for a market trend. Quality was very attractive with several load lots of cattle selling straight off the wheat. Buyer attendance was very good. Trading activity and demand were good. Temperatures warmed back up, and evening storms are forecast throughout the week which will give a nice boost to area pastures.
