Slaughter markets remain firm on last weeks prices. We are starting to see some good heavy slaughter weights coming off oats and we expect this to continue. We are weighing plenty of heavy feeder steers also off oats. The light store market is very strong as restockers try and secure cattle for this very good spring.
