Market Notes
Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady, and although some of the extreme top prices seen on the light cattle under 500 lbs last week weren't quite achieved, all weights sold on an active market with good to very good demand. Dry weather and favorable market conditions made for a large supply of cattle and it sure feels as though we are still in a liquidation phase for this area with big runs of calves, feeders and cows all spring. The grass has been slow to get going, forage reserves have been depleted and hay season feels a long ways away right now. A large supply over near 450 cows and bulls were not reported due to the large run of feeders.
Supply included: 100% Feeder Cattle (55% Steers, 42% Heifers, 3% Bulls). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 44%.
