Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly steady to weak. Not enough comparable sales on slaughter cows and bulls for a market trend. Buyer demand was moderate to good on moderate to active trading activity. The majority of the trading region has received some moisture ranging from 2 tenths to over an inch in the form of rain or snow, with more precipitation forecasted throughout the week. The area still needs consistent moisture to have more than a temporary impact on drought conditions.
