West Plains livestock salesThe Ozarks Regional Stockyard, West Plains, Mo., reported receipts of 2,779 head Oct. 23, compared to 3,065 head last week and 3,750 head last year, according to the Missouri Department of Agriculture-USDA Market News Service, Jefferson City, Mo. Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers traded $2 to $4 lower. Once again, the full decline was evident on the lighter weight calves as well as those that showed up unweaned and unvaccinated. The feeder offering was not as attractive, some showed the effects of the lack of grass or water and others were just looking for permanent homes.
