Compared to last week: The market seemed to turn softer this week,
particularly steer calves weighing up to 650. Heifers seemed to fare
better, but there were too few comparable sales to determine a trend.
Quality seemed to be plainer as drought conditions persist in the area.
Slaughter cattle reporting was shorter this week, but the market fared
positive on high yielding cows and bulls. A large supply of dries and late
calvers were brought in off of droughty and burned out country. High
yielding beef cows brought upwards of $1.90/lb for the first time this
week, and high yielding, good flesh bulls remain over $2.00. Trade was
mixed with the higher demand favoring the slaughter cattle market.
