Tuesday, January 12, 2016 - Packer Day
Even though the fed market was 200 higher, the trade was active especially on the solid choice steers & heifers that were clean. Wet winter weather has made for muddy conditions on the farm. Obviously this extra tag on the hair coat has the buyers lowering yield estimates!
Cull cows were active and sold 2.00 higher. Bulls steady.
