Compared to last week light weight steers sold steady to 4.00 higher. Feeder steers from 700 to 900 lbs sold 1.00 to 2.00 higher and over 900 lbs sold steady to 2.00 lower. Heifers under 800 lbs sold 2.00 to 5.00 higher and over 800 lbs sold 2.00 to 5.00 lower. Demand was mostly good. Offering included, weaned, bawling fall calves and yearling feeder cattle. Some of the cattle came off rye and summer grazing pastures with the usually run from backgrounding pens. As, we get through June sales most of the cattle coming through the auctions should be off summer grass. These grass yearlings are usually sought after most should have good compensatory gains and feedlots want a yearling compared to a calf to feed. Farmers have kicked on pivots in most areas of the state. Especially in areas that missed the spotty rain showers. Several grazing and haying areas could use a good general rain.
