Western Iowa Precondition Sale. Compared to the sale two weeks ago; steers 700 lbs steady to 1.00 higher, 800 lbs 7.00-8.00 higher. Heifers 450-550 lbs steady to 4.00 higher, 750 lbs mostly steady. CME feeder cattle futures up 1.00 today. A couple load lots of yearling heifers and steers, along with plenty of smaller strings in this light offering. Demand good, especially on replacement heifers.
