Fairview Sale Barn - Slaughter Sale -7/12/16

Fairview Sale Barn - Fairview, IL     Packer Day  (309) 778-2225

Tuesday, July 7, 2016

No real market comparison since we haven't had a sale for 2 weeks.

However the market had definitely drifted lower since our last sale on

June 28th.  Today's top was 123.75.  Cattle with weight and finish continue

to demand the highest prices.

Cow and bull run was smaller, but trade was very active and fully steady.
