The last bred cow and pair sale was three weeks ago with this week's large 
supply selling with a higher undertone.   Brutal dryness continues across the 
trade area and ranchers and cattlemen have made a tough decision to start 
selling off the older cow/calf pairs and some bred cows. Pasture and range 
conditions for this week per NASS in Nebraska is at 79% poor to very poor, WY 
at 70% and SD comes in at 42%. However, the SW corner of of South Dakota is in 
a extreme drought category. Quite a few of the lots of cattle are going to out 
of state buyers as those states are improving their genetic base and have some 
green grass for grazing.  Nice crowd of buyers on the seats along with active 
internet buying.
