Tuesday, May 28, 2013- Packer Day
Rain, rain & more rain! At least for us cattlemen,
the grass is growing even though the beans are still in the bag.
Slaughter steers & heifers sold mostly steady with
last week on a 130.75 top. Cow run was shorter in numbers than its been
all spring (something we've been expecting for several weeks), but the trade was
mostly steady on a 93.00 top!
