Tuesday, April 20, 2021 - Packer Day
346 slaughter cattle including 181 fed steers and heifers sold with moderate demand on a mostly steady to .50 lower market. Overall quality and condition wasn't as attractive as last week!
Slaughter cows were well received and sold with very good demand as several high yielding cows brought 70.00 or better! Bulls overall lacked the quality of last week as the bulk of the bulls were average in yield at best.
