Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves not well tested. Yearling

light to moderate supply. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 3.00 higher.
In the feedlot trade, light trading of negotiated live sales in Kansas sold
mostly steady at 235.00. In the hay market, demand was light, and prices were
steady. Trade remains slow to moderate with most trades occurring in the
southwest region. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor for the week of August
5th, A broken pattern of heavy rainfall - with upwards of 3 inches reported in
spots - prevailed from northern Kansas through much of the Dakotas. The
improvements left severe drought confined to part of south-central Nebraska and
adjacent Kansas, southwestern Nebraska, and a small area in south-central South
Dakota.
