   7/15/20 Cattle Sale Market Report
   Sale consisted of 90 percent preconditioned calves with a very active market. Quality was mixed throughout the day, but cattle saw strong premiums for their health program Producers chose to market cattle that in most cases had been held longer than in years past as they’re growing tired of holding onto them.
   The summer heat is causing the market to hand out discounts to fleshy, unweaned calves and any long haired cattle as they are the most vulnerable in the extreme temperatures.
   Cattle were shipped to Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas, and Illinois.
   Thank you to all consignors and buyers for another successful sale.
   For questions about the market, trucking or how we can get you the most out of your cattle contact Clay Birk at 573-275-1387. ∆
