Tuesday, July 26, 2016 - Packer Day
Overall finish and yield of the slaughter cattle not as attractive as the last couple of weeks. The extremely hot muggy weather we've experienced the last 10 days could have been a factor in that! The fed market was definitely lower as today's top was 118.75.
Cull cow market was very active and sold 2.00 higher and bulls were steady on a light test.
