Eastern Missouri Livestock Auction
JULY 14, 2017 • Bowling Green, Mo.
Receipts: 963; Last Week: 773; Year Ago: 600

   There has been no real good comparison on feeders, especially yearlings for several weeks with the bulk of Friday's sale weighing 600-850 lbs. Several lots and packages of good black yearlings sold with very good demand on a light to moderate supply all selling with a sharply higher undertone. Feeder calves under 600 lbs were very lightly tested but sold with good demand on a higher undertone. A light test of slaughter cows sold steady. CME cattle futures surprised many this week with sharp gains in the middle of July along with a higher fed cattle trade this week, mostly $2.00 higher at $120.00 help give support to the market. Slaughter cows accounted for near 10 percent of the total receipts. Feeder supply consisted of 60 percent steers and bulls, 40 percent heifers and 65 percent weighing over 600 lbs.
