Western Iowa Precondition Sale. No comparison, as the last sale was not Precondition. CME feeder cattle futures up 3.00 today. Prices continue to rise, especially on yearling cattle. Many load lots of both calves and yearlings, along with plenty of smaller strings in the offering. Many buyers in the arena today. The market was very active throughout the sale.
