Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; feeder steers over 800 lbs traded 2.00 to 4.00 lower on comparable trades with steers under 800 lbs trading steady. No test on steer calves as this was the first large run of the fall season. Feeder heifers followed the same trend trading 2.00 to 3.00 lower. No test on heifer calves as well. Nice offering of all classes of cattle with an active market for light weight calves.
