offering was cows and 30 percent of the feeders were over 600 lbs. Feeder
supply approximately 56 percent steers and bulls and 44 percent heifers. The
feeder trade is lower this week due partly to world stability/economic issues,
continued cattle feeding losses and new concerns about the 2013 corn crop given
the late arrival of spring.
