Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; steer and heifer calves under 650 lbs traded 3.00 to 6.00 higher with instances 11.00 higher. Feeder steer and heifers over 650 lbs traded 2.00 to 3.00 lower. A very nice offering with several long strings of long time weaned steers and heifers. A very active market with warmer weather throughout the area the last week.
